At the "Hirosaki Sakura Festival," which is being held at Hirosaki Park (Shimohiragincho, Hirosaki City), cherry blossoms in the "Heart" are currently attracting attention from cherry blossom visitors.

There is a place where two cherry blossom branches are combined in the shape of a heart in the sky. It is a chance that a tree doctor accidentally found it in the initiative started in 2015. As a hidden spot, the shape is also adjusted and lighted up.

In the park, the place where you can see the shape of the heart is not open to the public, but a stump with a heart mark is set up as a landmark. There were people gathering around the day and night, taking pictures and approaching a group of people, and I was surprised that there was a heart shape.

A woman in her 20s who said she came from Osaka said, "I wonder how it's done. I want to upload photos to SNS and brag about it." A couple in their thirties, who came last year, smiles, saying, “I came on a date as a lover last year, but as a fiancé this year. Hirosaki's cherry blossoms are really beautiful and this is one of my memories.”

According to the flowering situation announced by Hirosaki City Park and Green Space Division at 11:00 on April 24th, the park (standard tree), the outer moat, and the Nishibori west bank are in full bloom, and the Nishibori east bank is 7 minutes away.

Hirosaki Sakura Festival is until May 6th. Light up during the period (from sunset to 23:00).
