Yokohama China Town
There are more than 600 restaurants and shops in Yokohama China Town. A Japanese saying reads “Hana Yori Dango” which means flowers (Hana) is less important than foods (Dango). After viewing Sakura flowers, it should be the time for enjoying a food tour at Yokohama China Town.
Estimated Best Season for Sakura in Yokohama
Nature only knows but it is usually from late March throughout early April. Even if your visit happened to be a little bit later than their peak, please do not get so worried because strolling in the gardens and parks are worth of it. And there are other places where later-bloomers like Yae Zakura can be viewed.
