PLAN FOR 2022 SAKURA SEASON IN JAPAN NOW As winter sets in, it’s time to start planning for the pink and ivory colors of spring in Japan. The most popular — and unpredictable — seasonal experience in Japan is the blooming of the cherry blossoms, or sakura. Remote Lands will bring you the very best of the sakura season, whether you want to hike the wilds of Tohoku or settle into an onsen. Learn when, where, and how to find the magnificent sakura of the Land of the Rising Sun.  LEARN MORE   WHEN?

Much like the warmth of spring itself, cherry blossoms bloom from south to north starting in late March in Kyushu. In Tokyo, travelers can expect the fleeting sakura petals to be blooming and falling in April, continuing into May in Hokkaido, Japan’s most northerly main island. Each year, the Japan Meteorological Corporation releases a cherry blossom forecast, so contact Remote Lands to learn the best time for you to visit.

WHAT TO DO?

Individual cherry blossoms bloom for about a week, so it’s essential to make the most of the experience. Travelers can wander around the moat of the Imperial Palace, stroll down Cherry Blossom Lane in Osaka, and have a picnic beneath the falling petals in Nara. Throughout the country, sakura flavored treats can be had in almost every form. Cherry blossoms are everywhere in Kyoto — canals, parks, temples — so enjoy some of the finest viewing anywhere in Japan, particularly from the preserved streets of wooden houses in south Higashiyama leading up to Kiyomizu-dera. From sundown, cities like Tokyo and Kyoto illuminate their cherry trees to allow for after-dark flower viewing, taking full advantage of the short-lived season. These are called yozakura —cherry blossoms at night.

WHERE TO STAY?

Whether you want to enjoy city life at the Peninsula Tokyo steps away from the sakura-covered imperial palace, indulge in the ultra-luxe Aman Tokyo, sip rosé at the Conrad Osaka, or indulge in the harmonious natural surrounds of Aman Kyoto, Ritz-Carlton Kyoto, and Four Seasons Kyoto, the Remote Lands team can ensure the perfect stays on your cherry blossom journey.
