of the rising sun! Discovering the Japanese countryside at this time of year is simply
awe inspiring, with so much to see, enjoy, and explore.
Experience a wonderful season to see Japan’s incredible cherry blossoms, amazing masses
of flowers in bloom, new green foliage on the mountains, rice fields being prepared and
planted, flying carp (kites) in celebration of “boys’ day”, and warming weather.
