Cherry are blossoming quite a bit early in Kyoto this year. I had a<\/span> shopping errand to do, so I took<\/span> the long way to check\nout a few<\/span> cherry-blossom spots around town. Unlike a similar<\/span> outing last year<\/a>,\nthis year I had<\/span> only a small<\/span> little camera with me, so the photos aren't too exciting,\nbut they perhaps give a sense<\/span> for some of the places. Many were at full bloom already.<\/p>\n\n

Each photo has a map link under it.<\/p>\n\n\n

I swung by the Kyoto Imperial Palace Park (\u4eac\u90fd\u5fa1\u6240\u516c\u5712),<\/span> which has some nice blossom areas\nin its northwest, and wasn't disappointed... it was, by far, the nicest area that I visited<\/span> today. It had such<\/span> a lovely<\/span> vibe.<\/p>\n\n
