✏️❤ Remember to Like & Comment on this video: Where would you like to see cherry blossoms or what spots would you add to this list? 🌸🌸🌸 Note: I've never been a flower type of girl, but the overall celebration and my feelings towards it really surprised me. This list is not only about sakura but shares spots that also are either near or at prime spots you'll visit on your normal itinerary! Written Travel Guide coming soon with more details.

Very nicely done. Another thing for the bucket list. I noticed that on Facebook you mentioned that you are getting fewer views. For some reason, this KZbin version never showed up with the rest of my subscriptions. I don't recall that happening before. I certainly hope you can continue. You have always been one of my favorite travel bloggers.

I love translucent pink petals. Cherry trees are casting a pink reflection on the water. A beautiful display of soft pink is just a marvelous miracle!❤️❤️

[@linnyunt]

Yay! The first of the Kansai videos is out! Such great recommendations here! 😍 Sakura season is the best time to visit Japan! It's great you could ride the Sagano Romantic Train. Highly recommended. It's also spectacular during autumn. By the way, the regular JR trains don't have assigned seats. No worries!

[@grrrltraveler]

Thanks- I certainly wish I could’ve visited more Osaka spots like you did to represent it better! 🌸💕 Kyoto felt like it had so much more and maybe they were easier to reach. Lol.

[@nijokongapally4791]

wow christine excellent Blossom Spot👍💯💖💖💖 Amazing .Thank you very much for this video👍💖😍

[@Alaxl]

Loved this vlog! I grew up in DC and we always had picnics under the cherry trees (donated by Japan), so this was very nostalgic for me :). I would love to see these in person. It's rainy and gloomy here today, so this was a very welcome reminder that Spring is here!! I particularly loved the areas with the blossoms draping out over water and the train ride!! Thanks again for all of your hard work and for sharing these experiences with us!!

[@grrrltraveler]

So you celebrated hanami in DC +Sarah L! 🙌 The hanging blossoms are really lovely. Never realized there were so many different types of sakura. 🌸🌸

[@MidnightSpecialist]

I'm going to have to figure out a prime time to visit Japan during cherry blossom season. I've only been in late spring and in early autumn. This video brings back so many memories.

[@Tricia622]

Nara Park looked amazing. Ok...they all did! Those deer had me laughing though. "You guys distract her while I go for what's under the jacket." XD

[@thegumbychronicles4892]

Great vlog ! My wife and I love going to Japan and when we can't, we watch your blogs. Take care

[@mikejohnson599]

nice to see the sights I see everyday in my 19th century Japanese print collection especially that famous Kyoto bridge

[@grrrltraveler]

Haha. Sakura is the national emblem of Japan I believe. 😁

[@dougwiermaa]

Christine What your videos do is inspire me to see places again and see it in a new light like Kyoto I stayed in a very nice guest house that was only about $15 to $21 a night. Also when I am homesick for Japan your videos are much better then my own pictures and videos to watch. I am also sharing your Japan videos with my airbnb hosts to share with their guests visiting Japan. Awesome!!! video now one of my favorite Japan videos!

[@grrrltraveler]

Wow how was the $15-21/nite-- was it near a metro? Lol

[@dougwiermaa]

Christine you take a local bus located at the main Kyoto train station .The bus ride is a fairly quick 20 min scenic ride one connection from main Kyoto station and walk 2 blocks to guest house. You are actually headed to the center of Kyoto.

[@petefoti1041]

I attended Hachinoe (North of Misawa) Cherry Blossom Festival in 1979, 80. Loved it.

[@grrrltraveler]

Haha. I was wondering if they had actual festivals ( I know Korea does).

[@donishita]

Aloha Christine! Another great video as usual, love the way you capture the feel of the places you visit. I heard those bowing deer can get pretty aggressive once they realize you have food, how was your experience with them? Amazing how many people were around, did you visit most places during a weekend or during the week?

[@grrrltraveler]

+Don Nishita Deer, I felt the shots in the video captured it perfectly. Lol. I had 8 days- I made use of every single day, every hour. 😉

[@HawaiiJapan808]

good stuff, I was just there last week, I biked the Shimanami Kaido. You have to do that on your next trip. keep up the videos. Thanks from kauai.

[@grrrltraveler]

Yay! You were just there for the biking- it was that an event ?

[@HawaiiJapan808]

did it solo, just something ive been wanting to do. It lives up to the hype, but dont do it in a day like i did, stay overnight somewhere and take your time. For sure you should do it and video it, its really pretty and super nice people on the islands.@@grrrltraveler

[@dougwiermaa]

Hi Christine beautiful video going to Japan in a few days your video I was at to the castle area in Osaka too and that same area:) thank you for sharing awesome job!

[@grrrltraveler]

Glad to see you comment here. 😊

[@YourTravelWithOlivia]

This was a beautiful tour of the cherry blossoms and the different tourist spots. Japan is on my list to get to and hoping to get there about the same time as you. But I did notice you were still wearing warm clothing, so I guess the temperature is similar to us here in Toronto.

[@grrrltraveler]

It was supposed to be a little warmer but before I left Japan had a freak cold spell. Later in the week I wasn’t appreciating my jacket as much. 😅

[@mikediamond4997]

You haven't posted to youtube in a while and I saw your status on FB. Is everything okay?

hola beautiful, I wish I would run into you in person somewhere in this world...😻😻

[@grrrltraveler]

+Laughing Lion When you do, remember to say Hi 👋 😁

[@TheLaughingLion]

@@grrrltraveler i would do more than say hi. i'd have a proper dinner with you and gaze at the evening stars together 👆😸

[@linnyunt]

Other recommendations for Kansai are: Osaka: Kema Sakuranomiya Park Japan Mint Bureau Expo Commemoration Park Shukugawa Park (Hyogo Prefecture) Kyoto: Heian Jingu Shrine Nara: Mt Yoshino is famous for its several thousand sakura on the mountain and surrounding mountains.

[@grrrltraveler]

+Lin Nyunt Thanks for sharing! I'll need to watch your Kyoto video to see---- Heian's Sakura was locked away under an admission fee - it was hard to see what I'd get. Was Mt Yoshino easier to get to than I thought?

[@zafmemyselfandi42]

Absolutely breathtaking! You are so lucky to go there and give us a tour a show us what we might *never see for real* ourselves! Sending you Lots of Love Light Peace and Happiness! Hugs Zaf💕🙏 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

@@grrrltraveler You are always so kind Christine I already downloaded the video so I can Enjoy it wherever I go and I am going to share it! Hugs Zaf💕👌

[@grrrltraveler]

thanks for appreciating my work, but as a content creator, I don't encourage downloads as people start stealing, copying, reuploading... it's stressful to manage. My videos/channels are monetized for a reason so every bit helps me if my views are connected to my channel. When they aren't, they add to my discouragement of making videos... which i'm already struggling with.

[@zafmemyselfandi42]

@@grrrltraveler I would never steal anything but I took it fast because I am running out of data and I want to share it on Facebook don't you want more Subscribers, I have the best intentions with my input for you I always get more Subscribers so more likes and comments for my favourites, you need them to keep traveling ...I would never do anything negative...Sad that you have people with bad intentions around you! Guess that makes you think different about me downloading your video to share it later on...okay I will remove it then! If that makes you feel better! Blessings Zaf...🙏

You didn't upload for a while. Are you quitting? Are you okay?

That's so beautiful, I want to see those Sakura with my own eyes one day. 😍👍 Thanks for sharing!

[@alyssab5508]

I felt you when you were in the train and uncertain if it was assigned seating. I hate that feeling of not knowing too!!! I see another stalking puppies video at the end here.

Very nice! Its always great when you time your travel with the beauty of nature. Rock on and continue to blaze a trail for us to tagalong.

[@grrrltraveler]

I don't normally travel peak season but the cherry blossoms were worthwhile. Glad I timed it fairly well. 😃🌸

[@fredhixon2965]

I went to Washington DC to see the cherry blossoms. They had a storm during the week end and there was not much to see. :(

[@grrrltraveler]

Oh no! Do they usually have a big display?

[@fredhixon2965]

Yes, I am told it is worth the trip. cherryblossomwatch.com/

I remember heading to Washington, D.C. to see cherry blossoms when I was on exchange! Really beautiful!

[@grrrltraveler]

How was it in Washington D.C.? Was there one special viewing spot or many? 🌸🌸🌸

[@HengHuiMei]

@@grrrltraveler I only went to one spot (it's a one-day trip), but I'm not sure if there are more than one!

I wanna go check out the Sakura season in japan. what week did you go? I was thinking of going last 5 days of March to first 5 days of April

[@paopaowell]

Sakura in japan cultural and actually these kind of three in China their are uncountable some are definitely amazing color you never seem before

[@kayotang2099]

This is the most interesting report on Hanami in Japan. My parents live in Nara where I always take time to wander among ancient temples while visiting. You have done a great job, thank you and keep on coming back during cherry blossoms.

[@grrrltraveler]

Glad to hear. How lucky to have Nara as your homebase- definitely one of my beautiful highlights!

HELLO I REALLY ENJOYED THIS VIDEO. I HAVE PLANS TO GO TO JAPAN NEXT YEAR AND WANT TO SEE THE CHERRY BLOSSOMS. WHAT IS THE BEST TIME TO SEE THIS THIS WONDERFUL THING?

[@grrrltraveler]

March to April but you will need to read the forecast predictions as they may change close to the time of bloom.

[@belindakitchenmaster1776]

Such a beautiful video! It makes me want to visit all those places, especially Nara where all the deer are :)

[@grrrltraveler]

I thought I’d like one more than the other- all cities were strong and worthwhile a visit. If anything I’d recommend staying longer
