Kawazu Town Sakura Check-in Success Quiet Slow Life.

I made a special trip to Kawazu to check in with the cherry blossoms, and it was really beautiful. Since I can only go to Japan in February and wanted to see cherry blossoms, I chose to go to Kawazu Town in Tokyo to see them. Kawazu Town, located in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, is famous for its beautiful cherry blossom spots. The cherry blossom season in Kawazu Town is very enchanting, with the entire town blooming with a brilliant sea of flowers every year. Having the opportunity to witness the cherry blossoms in Kawazu Town with my own eyes was a beautiful and unforgettable journey. As soon as I stepped into this town, I was immediately struck by the stunning view of pink and white cherry blossoms everywhere. Walking under the cherry trees and watching the petals fall should give a sense of tranquility and romance. In addition, Kawazu Town has some other tourist attractions, which I also successfully checked in. I arrived in Kawazu Town during the cherry blossom season, just in time for the cherry blossoms to bloom. The entire town was surrounded by cherry trees, forming a brilliant sea of flowers. I strolled along the Kawazu River, enjoying the beautiful scene of falling petals, feeling as if I were in a fairy tale world~

In the early spring of February, when the northern part of Japan was still snowing, Kawazu Sakura of the Izu Peninsula quietly dyed Kawazu-cho to pink. What is the variety of Kawazu Sakura? Hejin Sakura belongs to the cold cherry. Its tree shape is tall, the color is bright and bright, and the flowering period is very early. As early as February, other cherry blossom varieties have not been seen, it has been opened, and the flowering period is long, lasting 20 days. Therefore, it is the earliest cherry blossom near Tokyo, and it is especially suitable for the cherry blossom festival that the Chinese people watched during the Spring Festival holiday in Japan. Kawazu Sakura was discovered by the inhabitants of Kawazu-cho, Kamo-gun, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan in 1955, and was planted in the riverside avenues to form the beautiful scenery of Kawazu, and the ancestors of Kawazu cherry blossoms in the picture~ This 600-year-old Sakura old man is still very lively and has a much earlier life than other Kawazu Sakura. Its location is in the middle of Kawazu Sakura Avenue, and you can find it by searching the Kawazu Sakura logs.

Kawazu Sakura, Shizuoka

#springblossom Enchanting place where you can see and feel spring in winter time. I recommend going early as the crowd seems to arrive in drives around mid day. There are pop up shops where you can different snacks and festival food. It’s 100% dog friendly. i think there were many visitors with dogs than with children ☺️Make sure you check the train schedule on the way back because the intervals are quite long for the local train. You can take the express train but make sure to buy the express train ticket, which is all reserved seat, and it’s quite pricey.

Amazing 7 waterfalls Izu Island

Come here at spring , if free entry , a perfect beautiful place to be. Hiking along the amazing 7 waterfalls and the forest is so refreshing. This place is worth a visit, it's peaceful here and the sound of the water relaxes the mind and heart. I suggest to bring a hand towel, extra tshirt and drink with you when you come, and also take a restroom first coz there is no restroom along the path. The pathways are well constructed but be prepared for the high and long stairways. This place is breathtaking..nature indeed is home. Will come here again for sure. One of the best hiking experience with nature.

Japan Camping | The campsite embedded in the scenic area in Izu is too great

⛺️ I went to Izu for New Year's camping at the end of the year. After arriving, I found that this campsite was simply the right choice! 🏕 This campsite is in a public park, surrounded by mountains, named after the famous Seven Waterfalls in Izu, next to the Seven Waterfalls Scenic Area, you can clearly hear the sound of water flow all day! It can be said that it has all the beautiful landmarks! 🌾 This campsite is divided into two, divided into several areas, and there are houses that can be checked in with a sleeping bag. You can book according to your favorite area~ ♨️ The campsite comes with an open-air hot spring, open 24 hours for free! But toiletries are not provided, and you can't use soap when bathing. Bathing is a coin-operated 200 yen for 4 minutes~ 🌟 Here can provide camping equipment rental services, from chopsticks, towels and bath towels, to sleeping bags, electric blankets, etc., can be rented or bought~ 🐠 There is also a fish pond in the campsite, you can rent fishing equipment, and the fish caught can be grilled and eaten directly~ 🤔 Summarize the pros and cons! 👆 Advantages: Located in the scenic area, the environment is beautiful and the air is fresh. The wooden area will not be very dirty when it rains. Comes with a 24-hour hot spring. The equipment provided is complete. 👇 Disadvantages: The kitchen (cleaning table) does not have hot water, but the water is sometimes warm when tested, and you can wear gloves if you need to wash pots and pans. The hot spring and bathing area are separated. After coming out of the hot spring, you have to put on clothes and go out, and then go into the bathing room next to it, which feels a bit troublesome. 🤗 In summary, this campsite should be a 🔥 season in spring, summer and autumn, and there will be many reservations. There are fewer people in winter. There were quite a lot of people on the two days of our New Year's Eve, and there were very few people a day later. There are also several RVs parked here, in short, it feels like a good campsite, highly recommended~✌
