This photo captures the reflection of cherry trees lining the pond within the park on the water's surface. The cherry trees reflected in the tranquil pond created a very serene atmosphere. Minuma Hikawa Park is a lush green park located within a quiet residential area in Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture. Come spring, the cherry blossoms throughout the park bloom all at once, enveloping visitors in a gentle pink hue.The number of cherry trees is not overwhelming; they bloom at just the right distance apart, allowing you to enjoy photography in a relaxed atmosphere. The charm lies in how they reveal various expressions depending on your composition—whether it's cherry blossoms blooming by the pond or a solitary tree standing beside the plaza. With fewer crowds and a calm atmosphere, visiting in the morning or evening lets you capture the beautiful contrast between the soft light and the cherry blossoms.
