There are many places to capture the beauty of cherry blossoms in Kyoto. Here, I share five must-visit places to enjoy hanami in the city. They are Maruyama Park, Hirano Jinja, Kamogawa river, Imperial Palace, and Philosopher Path. All of them are located in the city center, and free of charge. In my opinion, Kyoto is the best place in Japan to see sakura.
