Cherry trees and their tradition

Sakura, or cherry blossoms in white or pink color, have long been a symbol of this country and its aesthetics. They are a popular motif in art, but they are also used to decorate everyday objects – porcelain, kimonos, stationery and many more. The Japanese follow the forecast to know when exactly the cherries will bloom in their area. It is a popular time for rest and holidays. During this time, every Japanese should traditionally have a picnic under a flowering tree
