It was a scene that felt somehow nostalgic amidst the bustling activity.Omiya Park, a famous spring destination in Saitama, draws many visitors every time the cherry blossoms bloom. The park features expansive lawns, ponds, and a Japanese garden, each spot offering photogenic cherry blossom scenes. Particularly popular spots include the pond's edge, where you can enjoy reflections, and the view of cherry blossoms framed alongside the torii gate. Looking up through the arch of blossoms from below creates a feeling of being enveloped by the flowers.
