#Sakura2024 🌸Sakura practice blooming @Fukui When cherry blossoms bloom, it is a season that many people look forward to. Pang is no exception. 🗓️The forecast says that this year, cherry blossoms will bloom 10 days later than last year. People who have never seen cherry blossoms like Pang have been waiting (although I have secretly looked at them in Kyoto, but there were only 2 trees). 🌸The most popular cherry blossom viewing spot in Fukui is along the Asuwa River. When the time comes, there will be yatai selling food. Many locals wait for the full bloom before going, but Pang is excited. When the weather is good, she does not hesitate to go and see what it is like. In conclusion, I will go all weekend. I plan to go again this week. The savings I have made for the whole month are 0️⃣. The next morning, there was news about the tax increase again. I comforted myself that it is rare. Although it has not bloomed all over, I think it will be full bloom this week. If anyone is passing by this city, please come and visit. We might even pass each other. 📌Asuwakawa, Fukui 🗓️Spring April 🕰️24 hrs #TravelJapan #pangsjourney #fukui #japan #sakura #hokuriku #Asuwakawa #fukui #fukui #sakura #hokuriku #japan
