1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour #524 - Kawazu cherry blossoms, Izu Peninsula

1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour After Remission #524

- Kawazu cherry blossom trees, Izu Peninisula, Japan
 
 
(The Kawazu town is famous for its cherry blossom trees that lined the river here. But it seems like we have arrived a little early, perhaps by 2 weeks. But still the sakuras here were blooming on some trees, making the area a pleasant walk. The stalls here were selling many local products, including raw wasabi, but the best buy was their sweet potato strips, grilled to perfection. If we had walked a little further, according to the local signage near the bridge, we would have reached "nirvana". I wonder how that would have felt like..)
