1)Tell us a little about this photo?
This photo was taken at Chidorigafuchi, Tokyo on a peaceful afternoon. It’s a great area to view Sakura if you don’t mind the crowds or having to stay standing to do so, (for hanami, I’d suggest heading to a park where you can set up camp and have a picnic under the sakura). I also made for Yasukuni Shrine, just a stone’s throw away from the boating area, this Shinto style shrine founded in 1869 is dedicated to those killed in war.
Chidorigafuchi is around a 10 minute walk from Kudanshita metro station on the Hanzomon, Shinjuku or Tozai line; alternatively, you can reach Chidorigafuchi on foot in around 30-45 minutes from the Imperial Palace East Gardens. Arrive as early as possible if you’re wanting to hire a boat along the moat, people flock to this area and a long queue will start form pretty quickly.
I couldn’t recommend Tokyo more during sakura season. This city doesn’t stop taking my breath away.
2)A catchy title for this photo?
Tokyo in full bloom
