About The Azalea Festival
Do you know Nezu?
Near Ueno, there is a Nezu Shrine where you can enjoy azaleas from early April to early May.
In Japan, there are consecutive holidays called Golden Week from late April to early May, and many people visit there.
Golden Week is crowded
Golden Week is a collection of national holidays.
As a result, you can't avoid crowding wherever you go in Japan.
There was a long line of people waiting for Nezu Shrine's Azalea Garden.
The line is very long because it is a holiday.
In that situation, azaleas are a little higher place, so let's enjoy the flowers without lining up.
I did not know that there were so many colors in azalea.
By taking pictures from Shinkyo-bridge, you can take pictures that no one here.
Enjoy your photo life!
