Mount Yoshino
Nara · Japan
Thirty thousand cherry trees up one mountainside, opening from the bottom to the top so the season climbs. Everywhere else gets a week of this. Yoshino gets a month, and moves it uphill.

Postcards from Mount Yoshino
Thirty thousand cherry trees opening from the foot of the mountain upward, and a shrine that once held a court.
