Naka-Meguro River at night time 🌸 Takahata Fudoson (金剛寺), located on the west side of Tokyo, Japan. It’s a beautiful Buddhist temple that doesn’t get mant tourists. Come for for the sakura season (cherry blossoms 🌸) or autumn colors 🍂 Jindai Botanical Gardens, a huge Japanese botanical garden in Tokyo, is hosts an amazing display of Sakura (cherry blossom) trees 🌸 Torotama cheese teriyaki burger, this months special at Mos Burger 🍔 The Sakura season has begun! This is along the river outside Kakio Station in Kanagawa 🌸 Wherever you are in Japan, you’re not far from a tiny, empty shrine. I thought I’d check out the bamboo groves near me, and came across this lovely spot 😊
