A short, breezy walk from the Tokyo Skytree is Sumida Park, home to the Bokutei Sakura Matsuri (Cherry Blossom Festival).
What happens?
The Bokutei centers around the park’s kilometer-long line of cherry trees, and features night illuminations and festival stalls. Since the flowers stretch for such a long way, be sure to wear your good shoes and be prepared for a little bit of night chill to get the most out of your nocturnal hanami. Light up is from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m.
When does cherry blossom start in Tokyo?
See our current Tokyo cherry blossom forecast to keep up to date. For all the blossoms, see our Best Cherry Blossoms Spots in Tokyo Mega Guide, for late-night views check out our guide to yozakura events and for elsewhere in Japan check our forecast!
