(2024-04-26) Goryokaku in full bloom
I didn't make it in time for the Spring Photocon, but Goryokaku has great significance from the perspective of Japanese history, so I will apply here.
This is Goryokaku in full bloom of cherry blossoms taken from Goryokaku Tower with a 17mm lens.

Initially, the expected full bloom date was 4/27.
4/26 Moved → Tokyo to Hakodate
Photo taken on 4/27
4/28 Returned to Tokyo
I had secured a bullet train and an inn according to the schedule, but the expected date of full bloom was getting earlier and earlier (;' ∀')
I forcibly took a picture on 4/26 when the Shinkansen flight on 4/26, which was just scheduled for a moving day, was brought forward and kept in full bloom w
Goryokaku, the site of the last fierce battle of the Boshin War, has great historical value as a Western-style bastion in Japan.
At this time of year, it also shows a special scenery.
