Highlights

Experience Tokyo’s cherry blossom season at its most magical—under the soft glow of lanterns and twinkling lights in Nakameguro. This trendy riverside neighborhood is home to one of the city’s most breathtaking sakura displays, with nearly 2 kilometers of cherry trees lining the Meguro River, transforming the area into a fairy tale wonderland each spring evening. As you stroll along the blossom-covered canal, let your senses come alive—the sweet fragrance of sakura petals drifting on the breeze, the lively hum of festival-goers, and the warm glow of paper lanterns reflecting in the water. Along the way, taste delicious seasonal street food, from grilled yakitori skewers and crispy tempura to sakura-flavored mochi and pink-hued sparkling sake. Friendly locals fill the streets, adding to the festive atmosphere, making this one of the most joyful springtime traditions in Tokyo.

About Tokyo

Neon-lit districts, quiet shrines, superb food and distinct neighbourhoods make up Tokyo, a vast, orderly metropolis linked by punctual trains.

Every district feels like its own city. Shibuya's famous scramble crossing and Shinjuku's towers, bars and Golden Gai alleys pulse with energy, while Harajuku mixes youth fashion with the forested calm of the Meiji Jingu shrine. In Asakusa, the Sensō-ji temple and its market street keep an older Tokyo alive, and Ginza offers polished department stores and galleries.

Top-ranked sights in Tokyo: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
