Cherry trees at Ueno Park in Tokyo have reached full bloom, drawing large crowds of people. Bathed in spring sunshine, many people enjoyed taking photos on Saturday.
About 800 cherry trees are planted within the park, with the Somei Yoshino variety now at their peak.
“The sheer volume of cherry blossoms is incredible, and I’m so moved,” said a 20-year-old university student from Funabashi, Chiba Prefecture. According to the park, the peak blossoms are expected to last for several more days.
