What travelers think of our Japan experiences
What you’ll do
With your host to guide you through Nagoya’s most famous cherry blossom viewing spots, you’ll learn what it means to celebrate sakura season like a local. You could buy takeaway tenmusu – chewy rice balls with a dollop of tasty shrimp tempura in the center – and a cold drink at one of downtown Sakae’s popular eateries and join locals for a traditional hanami (cherry blossom viewing) picnic under Nagoya Castle’s blossoming trees.
Or maybe you’ll sample wagashi confections at the traditional teahouse in Tokugawa Garden before slowly strolling down pretty paths lined with trees. A little early for the season? The Higashi Ward is home to a famous street that blooms a cherry blossom tree tunnel at the beginning of March!
