“Yoyogi Park Sakura in February 2024
Although spring is the most popular time to see these flowers, you can still catch beautiful sakura during winter from mid-February onwards in several parks, gardens and shrines around Tokyo.
You’ll most commonly come across kawazu-zakura, a pastel pink cherry blossom.
One of Tokyo’s most popular picnic spots, Yoyogi Park’s expansive lawn is a welcome oasis of greenery in the busier part of the city. The park is usually packed during hanami season in spring, but the winter-blooming kawazu-zakura cherry blossoms in the central plaza are not to be missed – they’re just as pretty as the springtime sakura.
