This is a special variety of sakura known as Kawazu Sakura. It typically reaches full bloom in mid to late February, well before anywhere else in Japan. The flowers of Kawazu Sakura are more of a bright pink color compared to the pale white flowers found on most cherry blossom trees in Japan. 00:00 Intro 02:08 Popular sakura row (12pm) 11:29 Start of long sakura walk (7:30am) 50:51 Original kawazu sakura tree 1:00:00 Second half of sakura walk (12:30pm) 1:42:55 Best photo spot 1:45:24 Night illuminations Kawazu Live Camera https://youtu.be/Xn7YQxxC5R0 📷 Follow on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/virtualjapantv/ 🌃 HDR Night Walks 🌙 https://bit.ly/hdr-night-walks 🇯🇵 HDR Japan Walks ☀️ http://bit.ly/hdr-japan-walks 🗺️ MAP https://goo.gl/maps/7L8sHp3mkUZN8fKo7 Become a channel member to get access to exclusive 360° behind the scenes footage! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMTv_Dg1BXFUglzWIIincpQ/join 🎥 Camera Gear 2021 📸 Camera - http://camera.virtualjapan.tv Wide Lens - http://lens.virtualjapan.tv Zoom Lens - https://geni.us/vjzl1 Portrait Lens - https://geni.us/vjpl1 Gimbal - http://gimbal.virtualjapan.tv Audio recorder - https://geni.us/vja1 Livestream Camera - https://geni.us/vjsc1 Livestream Gimbal - https://geni.us/vjsg1 Bikeride camera - https://geni.us/vjbc2 360 camera - https://geni.us/vj3601 (new model, same quality) 👉 Click the Amazon Affiliate links above when shopping for anything on Amazon It costs you nothing extra, but a small percentage of the any sale goes towards supporting this channel 😄 🔴 Come hang with us on Twitch https://www.twitch.tv/virtualjapan 💬 Chat with us on Discord https://discord.gg/wV3rfeh 🧢 MERCH STORE 👕 https://store.virtualjapan.tv 🤝 Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/virtualjapan #4kHDR #sakura #japan #kawazu
