Obara Fureai Park
http://www.kankou-obara.toyota.aichi.jp/english/shikizakura.html





While ordinary cherry trees only bloom once in spring, the Obara shikizakura blooms once in spring, and again from October to December. The small five-petaled blossoms are thought to indicate a cross between the mamezakura and edohigan species of cherry trees.

The flowers begin to blossom at the end of October, and are at their peak from mid November through early December. The peak period varies somewhat from year to year.

Growing in all parts of the district, the trees number approximately 10,000. Among them, the Maehora Shikizakura, aged more than 100years, has been designated a natural monument by Aichi Prefecture and is carefully protected.




Sakura dalam musim luruh. Umpama autumn & spring fusion.

JR Kanto Area Pass
http://www.jreast.co.jp/e/kantoareapass/
http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2361_06.html



Pass ni juga boleh digunakan sedikit dalam kawasan Chubu.
Pass nih valid utk 3 hari, 8300yen.
So, pass nih worth it kalau pegi kat salah satu (atau lebih) antara tempat2 kat bawah ni. Nak habiskan semua 3 hari kat tempat2 nih pun boleh atau baki lagi 2 hari tu nak guna around bandar Tokyo pun boleh.

Contoh harga tiket dari Stesen Minami-senju yg kite salu dok sbg perbandingan dgn JR Kanto Area Pass ni.

[Chubu] Izu Peninsula (Shimoda) 12,120yen
[Chubu] Karuizawa 11,000yen
[Chubu] Shosenkyo Gorge (Kofu) 7,860yen
