Ngo Tran Hai An is the real name of travel blogger and photographer Quy Coc Tu. In mid-April, he traveled to Fukushima province, the third largest province in Japan, during the cherry blossom season. Photographer and travel blogger Ngo Tran Hai An, also known as Quy Coc Tu, explored Fukushima prefecture during the cherry blossom season in mid-April. This is the third largest prefecture in Japan.

This year, Japan's cherry blossom season has had many changes in weather, causing predictions of blooming times to be incorrect, and the season in Fukushima is no exception. Two days before the trip, Hai An was informed that the flowers were very beautiful, but the next day, it rained heavily, and many flowers fell. He had to change locations in time to see the flowers more fully.

Luckily, the weather was favorable, so as soon as he landed, his journey to see cherry blossoms in the land of the Rising Sun was much smoother and more exciting.

The first stop on this journey, blogger Hai An went to Hanamomo no Sato flower garden in Iizaka town. Take the train from Fukushima station to Iizaka Onsen station, walk 20 minutes to reach the garden. Coming to Hanamomo no Sato at this time, you will be able to see the scene of 40 varieties of cherry blossoms blooming at the same time like a feast for the eyes.

This is a private cherry blossom garden with more than 300 trees of 40 different cherry blossom species. Visitors can find beautiful cherry varieties such as yae-zakura, kikuzaki... with a variety of colors from pure white to light pink and bright red.

The first time she saw cherry blossoms in Fukushima, blogger Hai An shared her experience and feelings: “The best time to see them is in the early morning with gentle sunlight. The peach garden is just waking up, still shy after a night of sleep, with dew still clinging to each petal. On the ground, thousands of rose petals are sobbing on the green grass. Around the peach garden are rows of yellow mustard flowers blooming, making the scene even more charming.”

The special thing about Hanamomo no Sato flower garden is that it is free to visit and not crowded like other famous places, so visitors are free to enter the garden to take pictures and enjoy the flowers without worrying about jostling. In addition, visitors can still support the garden as much as they want so that the garden has more funds to take care of the plants.
