This weekend (Sat, March 30 and Sun, March 31) will be in full bloom around Tokyo.
This week I will share about "2019 cherry-blossom viewing party"!
"Cherry-blossom viewing party" is called HANAMI in Japan.

About Kasai Rinkai Park
Located at the east end of Tokyo, next to Tokyo Disneyland.
A large ferris wheel and an aquarium can be enjoyed in the park in front of Tokyo Bay.
There are restaurants and shops, but it closes at night.
There is a convenience store in front of the station so you can have a picnic anytime.
The cherry blossoms in Tokyo a few days ago, so this week I will share information about the Sakura Picnic.

Blooming cherry blossom:★☆☆☆☆
Official announcement that cherry trees are in bloom in Tokyo on March 21, 2019.
Many groups already have a cherry-blossom viewing party.
Looking up at cherry blossoms.
It is already spring so you can enjoy flowers other than cherry blossoms.
Chaenomeles speciosa flowers were also in the immediate vicinity of the cherry blossoms.
The cherry blossom near the Ferris wheel was still sleeping.
Duck is also taking a walk.
