Cherry Blossoms are a significant part of Asian cultures like Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. These flowers are generally seen as a symbol of springtime, as they only blossom this time of year. Blooming between March and April, crowds tend to flock to these countries in anticipation of the beautiful blossoms that paint these countries (and social media feeds) pink.
Japan
Those visiting Japan between March to April can witness some of the country’s most iconic attractions while chasing blooms! The Mt. Fuji Flower Festival & Ropeway & Fruit Picking Tour from Tokyo offers visitors an adventure that begins with a fruit picking adventure for all ages at Yamanashi Orchard, followed by captivating views of Fuji Five Lakes at Mt. Fuji’s 5th station, Mt. Fuji itself, and Lake Kawaguchiko. Included in this package is admission to the most scenic sea of flowers found in the Shibazakura Festival, or Lake Yamanaka Flower Park. Talk about the land of the blooming blossoms!
Taiwan
An accommodation for those craving to try out new experiences, Taiwan offers a unique camping site with their Fall in Love with Xiong Glamping in Hsinchu. If you and your friends are looking to indulge in the serenity of nature with the addition of glam – glamorous camping, or glamping, might just be your cup of tea! Surrounded by the serene mountains of Taiwan, this is the ideal getaway for those wanting to escape the daily 9 to 5 grind. Visitors can officially kick back and relax during this glamping experience, as all equipment and meals are included in the packages offered.
South Korea
South Korea is considered to be one of the most sought-after destinations by Filipinos, and for good reason too! As big fans of Korean Dramas, Filipinos are sure to enjoy the Yangpyeong Yongmun Temple & Paragliding Tour, which brings tourists to some of the most famous Korean TV drama and variety show filming locations! During Cherry Blossom season, visitors get to visit the Yangpyeong Galsan Park which exhibits some of the best views of the blooms. In addition, the activity tours visitors to the peaceful Yongmunsa Temple, the Dreamy Camera Cafe, which is considered to be one of the top cafes you must visit once in your life, and finally, the E-Land Han River Cruise that runs through the heart of Seoul (Note: fans of the popular Korean drama “My Love from the Star” might recognize this as the scene where Professor Do rescued Cheon Song-yi from going overboard).
