Planning Your Dates
Sakura timing varies, with Tokyo and Kyoto often blooming from late March into early April, while Osaka is similar and northern cities peak later. Check the Japan Meteorological Corporation forecast and aim for a 5 to 7 day window that overlaps predicted full bloom. If you can, build in a day trip option to chase better petals if rain or wind hits.
