Since my last post on this years Cherry Blossom Forecast i’ve had a few comments and emails asking where there best spots to view Cherry Blossoms in Tokyo, so here’s a list i’ve put together of 7 spots to view this years Cherry Blossoms and the nearest station access for each.

Yoyogi Koen - is one of the largest parks in Tokyo, located adjacent to Harajuku Station and Meiji Shrine in Shibuya. A few minute walk from Harajuku station.

Ueno Park - is a spacious public park located in the Ueno section of Taito-ku. Right next to Ueno station.

Shinjuku Gyoen - is a large park with an eminent garden in Shinjuku and Shibuya. A 5 minute walk from Shinjuku Station.

Aoyama Cemetry - is a cemetery in Minato. Although maybe a little creapy for some it’s a 5 minute walk from Nogizaka or Gaienmae stations.

Chidorigafuchi Senbotsusha Boen - is the Japanese cemetery for war dead, near to the Imperial Palace and Yasukuni Shrine. The easiest access is by Kudanshita station.

Sumida Park - The park stretches for a few hundred metres along both sides of the Sumida River. Asukusa station is the closest.

Inokashira Park - This pary straddles Musashino and Mitaka in western Tokyo. Kichijoji station is your best bet.
