This weekend saw the peak of the fleeting cherry blossom ('sakura') season. It lasts only a few weeks as it moves through Japan, but it's a great sight to behold and you wish it were more of a permanent fixture.
During the cherry blossom season, people have hanami ('flower viewing') parties in the park where they eat and drink all day.
Here is a selection of cherry blossom that I saw near my apartment.
