Best Cherry Blossom Festivals in Tokyo 2019/Part 1 東京のベスト桜まつり2019 Part 1

Cherry blossoms are in full bloom in Tokyo now. There are many places to view cherry blossoms in Tokyo. I hit some of the best cherry blossom viewing spots: 

Sumida River Park
Ueno Park
Rikugikan
Tokyo Midtown

I particularly enjoyed Yozakura: cherry blossoms at night. Lanterns or lights light up the blossoms at night. Hanami: flower viewing...is popular not only during the daytime, but also at night. Hidden gem of Yozakura is the streets up the hill next to Ark Hills from Roppongi-Itchome towards the Embassy of Spain and Izumi Garden. The blossoms of the large cherry trees along the streets are spectacular and perhaps not known by many because I hardly saw people there. It could be a hidden gem for a cherry blossom viewing spot.
