At Hirosaki Park (Shimohiragin-cho, Hirosaki City), "heart-shaped" cherry tree branches are now quietly popular among young women.

In Hirosaki Park, there is a place where two cherry tree branches are combined in the shape of a heart in the sky. At the Hirosaki Sakura Festival, which started on April 23, the same branch where the cherry blossoms began to bloom became the "heart of cherry blossoms," and the number of women who are looking for cherry blossoms began to increase.

Mr. Yuji Ebina of the park's greenery section said, ``There is a story that it would be interesting if there was a hidden spot like a'lover's sacred place' that can be enjoyed by couples in the park, and the branch that originally had a shape like a heart A tree doctor found it and pruned it from there to create the current shape."

The park is currently disclosing information on the location of the heart cherry tree, but said that a stump nearby was marked with a heart mark. Mr. Ebina says, "I would like you to walk around the park with your own feet and search for and find the "heart." Even if the cherry blossom festival is over, it will be left in its original shape. If you continue to enjoy it," he said.

A woman in her 20s living in the city who was visiting the park with her friend said, “I came to look for a place referring to the photo posted by my friend on SNS. I am happy to find it. I also posted it. I want to show off to people."
