The Japanese tradition of hanami, or picnicking under fully bloomed cherry trees, is a reminder to live in the present and enjoy the beauty of nature.

The blooms typically begin in the south where it’s warmer and end in the north.
The cherry blossom season in Japan is usually one of the busiest due to the comfortable temperatures and beautiful flowers which attracts visitors both domestically and internationally.
Do note though that while there are meteorological forecasts that try to pinpoint approximately when the cherry blossoms will be in full bloom, they are still predictions.
Living in Japan taught me that you just have to be patient when it comes to the sakura blooming, and appreciate it as much as you can when the time arrives.
