You do not have to travel to Japan to enjoy Hanami.
(花見, "flower viewing")
A Japanese traditional custom of enjoying the transient beauty of flowers; flowers (花, hana) in this case almost always refer to those of the cherry (桜, sakura).
From the end of March to early May, cherry trees bloom all over Japan as the blossoms only last a week or two.
In 2013 we were fortunate enough to be asked to arrange the UK Butoku Sai in Commemoration of 111th anniversary of Anglo-Japan Alliance. As a lasting legacy the 'Kuwahara Promenade' was planted and every year while in blossom we visit for Hanami.
