If in Russia spring comes with the appearance of snowdrops, then in Japan a sign of the onset of warmth is cherry blossom. In early April, the trees are covered with beautiful pink flowers, as if to say to spring: it's time. The most colorful photos of cherry blossoms in 2014 are presented in our review.
The flowering period usually takes 2 weeks. The first cherry blossoms to bloom on the island of Okinawa (the warmest in Japan). The second trees are covered with flowers in Tokyo. And only at the beginning of May sakura blooms on the island of Hokkaido. During this period, a lot of tourists from all over the world come to Japan. There is even a special cherry blossom association that compiles a list of places where cherry blossoms are most abundant every year.
By the way, before the annual trip to Japan, most photographers gather at the Formosan Aboriginal Culture Village, Taiwan, where the annual Cherry Blossom Festival takes place at the end of February.
As for the artists, they are very fond of depicting sakura on canvases, emphasizing the transience of time and the flowering of the tree. One of our past reviews showcased Ran Hwang's art: a cherry blossom made from pins, beads and buttons.

Cherry Blossom, or Sakura handmade. Fresco on a building ready for demolition
Japan, which suffers from earthquakes more and more often than other countries, has one curious tradition known as Okurie. Tradition, or rather, an art project, is that residents decorate destroyed houses intended for demolition with frescoes and graffiti in order to give them a festive look at least for a while. One of these actions was provoked by the artist Yosuke Tan, inviting everyone to participate in the painting of the college building in Iwaki Sogo, where he once studied, as well as
