Japan's cherry blossoms attract hanami-goers with fantastic lights
Cherry blossoms around the ruins of Tottori Castle and Fukurogawa River in Tottori City are illuminated, and cherry blossom viewers are enjoying the fantastic atmosphere.
The period was extended due to the delayed blooming. Bonobori (paper lanterns) and floodlights were set up along Fukurogawa River and lit up from 6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
Families enjoyed taking pictures of the cherry blossoms.
