Cherry blossoms at Zenkoji Temple, Nagano, Japan [ 4K ]

Zenkoji Temple and its surrounding cherry blossom viewing spots!
Zenkoji Temple, a nondenominational temple located in the center of Nagano City, is one of Japan's representative temples with a history of approximately 1,400 years. It has been known since its founding as a sacred site where one can make a lodgment without being a sectarian. It is also known as a temple that has always accepted all believers, allowing women's salvation in the old Buddhist tradition where women were forbidden to enter.
The present main hall, rebuilt in 1707 (Hoei 4) during the mid-Edo period, is designated as a "National Treasure" and is the third largest wooden structure designated as a National Treasure, with a height of about 27 m, a frontage of about 24 m, and a depth of about 53 m.
On the east side of the main hall is the "East Garden," a pleasant garden with a murmuring stream.
Zenkoji Unjoden
Unjo-den is an ossuary built on a hillside on the north side of Zenkoji Temple and is one of the temple buildings.
It is located in a prime location overlooking the Zenkoji Plain, with a panoramic view of the Zenkoji temple grounds below and the Nagano city center beyond.
The best time to view the cherry blossoms around Zenkoji Temple is usually from mid to late April.
Joyama Park
Nagano City Joyama Park is a vast urban park located just east of Zenkoji Temple, in the center of Nagano City.
As the name implies, Joyama was the site where Yokoyama Castle was built in the Nanbokucho Period, and was the main camp of Kenshin Uesugi during the Battle of Kawanakajima in the Warring States Period.
The park is also home to the Nagano City Joyama Zoo and the Nagano Prefectural Shinano Art Museum, and with a monorail, merry-go-round, and other large playground equipment, visitors can enjoy not only a stroll through the park, but also an amusement park-like experience. With approximately 470 cherry trees planted in the park, it is known as one of Nagano City's most popular cherry blossom viewing spots.
