🌸 Cherry Blossoms in Chiba
📍 Oyama Senmaida Terraced Rice Paddies (photo from 2022)
🗺️ Google Maps Plus Code: 4XHF+RP Kamogawa, Chiba

For our final cherry blossom post of 2023, it’s a photo taken at the terraced rice paddies of Oyama Senmaida. For much of Chiba, the peak cherry blossom season is happening right now and it should be a few more days until the sakura trees shed their final petals. If you happen to currently be in the Tokyo area, check our previous posts for other cherry blossom spot recommendations in Chiba. If you couldn’t make it in time to see the cherry blossoms here this year, we hope to see you in spring 2024!
*Peak blooms will vary by location and type of cherry tree, and will be affected by weather conditions.
