You might be wondering why Kanazawa is the best place to see cherry blossoms. There are two reasons. One, the amazing Kenroku-en garden as well as the newly built Kanazawa castle next the garden make a for an atmospheric place to see the true beauty of the blossoms. Two, Kanazawa certainly gets its fair share of visitors but its nothing compared to Kyoto or Tokyo, where you’re bound to see more people than flowers. Of course, you’re lucky if you get to see them anywhere.
