Enjoy a seasonal Spring Cherry Blossom Photo Walk in Shinjuku, where you can experience Tokyo’s sakura season at a relaxed pace. During the tour, visit Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, a beautiful garden with historical ties to former samurai estates, and learn about its cultural background. Stroll through scenic pathways and stop by the picturesque Taiko Bridge to capture iconic cherry blossom photos. Along the way, enjoy traditional Japanese sweets such as Dango or Sakura Mochi from a local shop. You will also learn about the tradition of hanami, the seasonal custom where locals gather under blooming cherry trees to celebrate spring.
