Of the many famous spots for seeing the cherry blossoms in the spring, this is not one of them. While spaces to spread out a picnic blanket are quite limited, a walk along the waterfront from the far end of Yamashita Park to the Minato Mirai 21 district is a very pretty one. The area is scenic at any time of the year, but is made especially so with the blooming flowers on branch tips.
