To be honest, I didn't think I'd be seeing cherry blossoms anytime soon. I would looove to visit Japan one day but haven't had the opportunity to do so
yet. Enter the
Brooklyn Botanic Garden and their super pretty Cherry Walk. As luck would have it, I was there when majority of the trees were in the first bloom stage aka: the flowers at their pinkest. Yay! :) Don't get me wrong, trying to catch the blossoms was nerve-wracking! A week before arriving, I was checking their
website daily for updates, and around 5 trees have started blooming. Waaah! I'm really glad I caught the stunning display of this mixture of 'Kanzan' and other cultivars. More reasons to love New York, noh?

Brooklyn Botanic Garden is located at 990 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11225, United States
What an amazing view! They even have a white cherry tree :)
ReplyDeleteIt really is! From what I understand, the color fades over time. I could be wrong though! Haha :)
DeleteI love cherry blossoms <3 *^* I really envy you!
ReplyDeleteReally glad I got to catch it! :)
DeleteOMG you look so fab! ♥ I've always wanted to see cherry blossoms in real life because I can only admire them in anime. Hahahaha! I hope I'll be able to see them IRL in the future. :'> This is now a part of my bucket list, so thank you so much for posting this! :)

Awww, thanks Roxanne! :) I think it's good to know that it's not limited to Japan, although Japan's still on my bucket list!
DeleteGanda naman. I actually thought you were in Japan and I was like, wow, you made it during the cherry blossom season because I know that's goes on for only about a week. I hear there are also more Cherry Blossoms in Washington. Anyway, the surroundings look just amazing. I'm planning a trip to Japan next year so I can see the Cherry Blossoms. Hopefully, I can save enough to actually make the trip. Ha!

Thanks Heide! I'm sure you'll be able to go to Japan next year if you really want to :) CebPac (and budget carriers in general, haha) is the ultimate frenemy for us budget conscious folks, haha :)
