In 1909, 2,200 cherry blossoms were planted by veterans. It was the first of Takada Park’s cherry blossom. Lots of lights (Bonnbori) lights up the turrets and cherry blossoms. And that view showed on a moat’s lake. It is very beautiful view. Sakura Road is also beautiful and fantastic. Many tourists come to see them in bloom, and it is now considered to be one of the nation's top cherry blossom viewing spots. The beginning of April to the middle of April is the best time to see. In that period, Hanami is held. In Hanami, you can enjoy not only seeing cherry blossoms but also eating Japanese foods like yakitori, yakisoba, takoyaki, because there are lots of street stalls. Now, this Hanami in Takada Park is called three big events of cherry-blossom viewing at evening in Japan.
