This photograph captures the reflection of cherry blossoms lining the Shinkashi River. The blossoms mirrored on the water's surface were beautiful, and the colors of spring spread out in the stillness.Just behind Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine, the cherry blossom trees lining the Shinkashi River become a quiet and exceptionally beautiful spot in spring. Walking along the riverside cherry blossoms is pleasant, and it's perfect for taking photos. If the timing is right, you might even see the reflection of the cherry blossoms on the water, allowing you to capture a slightly special shot. For those wanting to avoid crowds, the early morning or evening hours are recommended.
