[English] Hachioji had a castle called Katakura Castle 500 years ago. Today, there is no castle, but there is a park that tells the history of the castle. This park is popular among tourists because of its beautiful katakuris (dogtooth violet) flowers in spring. The park is also decorated with statues. The statue in the photo is famous because a kingfisher once perched on its shoulder. Hachioji is not only rich in nature, but also has many historical sites. At school, before visiting such historical places, students have classes to learn about the history of Hachioji. Many students know the word "samurai" but do not know much about the deeper history of the city, so everyone listens intently to what is being said 😊.

The cherry blossom season has finally arrived! The photo shows a place called the Cherry Blossom Tunnel in Nada Ward, Kobe City. From the immediate vicinity of Maya Cable Station, about 70 Yoshino cherry trees are planted on a slope of about 400 meters from north to south. This was planted at the same time as the opening of the Maya Cable, and it was in full bloom in a tunnel shape. The photo was taken on April 2 last year, but it seems that this year's flowering will be earlier than usual, and it will be in full bloom on March 27 according to the expected bloom on March 21. At the top of the slope, you can see a little bit of Osaka Bay. If you take the Maya View Line from Maya Cable Station to Hoshi Station, you can also go to Kikuseidai, which is famous for its wonderful night view. Now that you have finally decided to wear a mask, why don't you go through the cherry blossom tunnel and feel 😊 the spring?

Today, in the series "Kobe, Rediscovered", we will deliver the "Cherry Blossom Tunnel" in Nada Ward, a famous place for cherry blossoms, as the seventh stage. The weather has finally passed spring, and the cherry blossom season is approaching again this year. This famous spot in Takao-dori, Nada-ku, Kobe City, is a slope of about 400 meters from north to south, and 70 old Yoshino cherry trees are planted on both sides of the road. This row of cherry blossom trees was planted in the Taisho era at the same time as the opening of the Maya Cable. The appearance is shaped like branches and leaves on both sides covering the road like a tunnel, so I think you can comfortably enjoy the cherry blossom trees if you walk through it leisurely. The photo was taken on April 2 of last year, when it was in full bloom. The petals in the foreground are dyed red by traffic lights (photographing the cherry blossoms at night before dawn) Please note that during the flowering season, there are a little more people passing by, and this is a road that city buses also pass through. At the top of the hill is the Maya Cable station. You can go to the top of Mt. Maya by cable car, so next time I would like to deliver the night view from the Kikuseidai.
