Enjoy the spring scenery of central Tokyo created by rows of cherry trees and the surface of the water at Chidorigafuchi
Chidorigafuchi is known as one of the most famous cherry blossom viewing spots in Tokyo, and is a photographic spot of overwhelming scale and beauty. The rows of cherry trees along the moat gently reflect on the surface of the water, and by adding a boat to the scene, you can create an impressive shot with a sense of movement. The promenade, which resembles a tunnel of cherry blossoms, is a good place to create a composition with an awareness of depth. Especially in the early morning when the light is soft and there are few people, you can capture the tranquil expression of the cherry blossoms in a quiet atmosphere.
Key points for photography
The key to taking pictures is to take advantage of the moat and rows of cherry trees at Chidorigafuchi, and to compose your shots with an awareness of reflections on the water's surface. Adding a boat to the picture adds movement and a sense of narrative, and a central composition that emphasizes depth on the cherry blossom tunnel-like promenade is also effective. By choosing the soft light of early morning, you can capture the quiet atmosphere with few people and the quiet expression of the cherry blossoms.
