Let's go to see the cherry blossoms by Edo bus

[Silver] April 9, 2017 18:00

 The cherry blossoms finally bloomed in April.

For those who say, "I'm not good at walking, so cherry blossom viewing is a bit!", We recommend that you go to the cherry blossom viewing by Edo bus.

 As we went on the north circulation service course to Nihonbashi from Chuo-ku government office, we report. (Departing at 10:00 on April 6, about an hour round course)

 In the cherry blossoms near the Chuo-ku government office, the cherry blossoms at Kameibashi Park and Shukubashi Park spread large branches and are in full bloom. I think you can enjoy the flowers until around April 9th.

 And in the planting beside the capital height in front of the main building of the Ginza Capital Hotel, "Red and White Hana Momo" is in full bloom. This will also be beautiful and gorgeous until around April 9th.

 Well, I'm leaving by Edo bus. The cherry blossoms at Sakuragawa Park on the right, on the side of Shintomi Kuminkan in front of Hatchobori Station, can be seen. It is close to full bloom.

At the north exit of Tokyo Station, the entrance to Nihonbashi Sakura-dori St. and the row of cherry blossom trees in front of Hotel Ryumeikan are beautiful. I like the Japanese-style buffet lunch at the Hotel Ryumeikan.

The Edo Bus starts in front of the Bank of Japan, and also passes through the Edo Sakura-dori St., which extends between Mitsui Main Building and Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi to Choredo Nihonbashi.

"Edo-dori St.", a road from Shin-Nihonbashi Station to Kodemmacho, is lined with neat and pure white "Magnolia kobus" street trees.

 The Edo bus showed the cherry blossoms next to Cored Muromachi and was able to see the street trees of "Magnolia kobus" again at the intersection of Kodemmacho.

 In the direction of Ningyocho, in front of Meijiza, "Yae Red Weeping" still remains a bud. In Hamacho Park beyond that, "Yoshino cherry tree" must have been in full bloom.

I got off here, had a cherry blossom viewing at Hamacho Park, shop at amazake Yokocho, and then enjoyed the cherry blossoms in front of Suitengu-mae and in front of the Royal Park Hotel.

I thought it would have been nice to get on the Edo bus again at Nihonbashi Kumin Center.

 After that, the row of cherry blossom trees in front of Ningyocho Station and the row of cherry trees in front of Nihonbashi Elementary School were also wonderful.

In this way, I enjoyed cherry blossom viewing on the one-hour Edo bus. The flowering of cherry blossoms this year was warm, and after the declaration of flowering, the cold days continued for about two days, so "weeping cherry tree is still buds" and "Oshima Sakura and Yoshino cherry tree also seem to have individual differences."

I think that the buds are still red weeping, even if they bloom this weekend, can be enjoyed until mid-April. (The condition of the flowers is forecast as of April 6 and in the near future.)

 The price of the Edo bus is 100 yen per time. A one-day ticket that you can get on and off is 300 yen. In the car, you can get "Edo Bus MAP Sakura Newsletter".
