_________________________

During the week or two (3rd week to 4th week of march) for which the Sakura (National Flower) blooms to its best in Japan, japanese people flock to the gardens and hold places under the Sakura trees, bring up lot of stuff to eat and drink and party all day long. During these weeks, even on the working days too, lot of companies organize there "Ohanami" (Japanese for "to see flower") parties where the newest and the youngest in the office are given a task of securing the place and arranging the party. Just chill and enjoy the garden we went to which is called "Ueno Koen" with friends namely Sukhdev, Darren, Rajan, shraddha along with me n swapna.It had a long street with Sakura Trees on both the sides, a fountain, a shrine, some interesting food stalls, museum and very very crowded shopping street of "AmeyaYokocho" among other things.

So sit back and enjoy the photo tour.
