Miharu Takizakura

The most amazing cherry blossom tree I have ever seen in my entire life!!! The tree is HUGE and it is over a thousand years old. It is 100% worth staying until after sunset to enjoy it also during the night since it is illuminated. The entire area around the tree itself is also really enjoyable with plenty of other beautiful flowers to view and many food options. I went there on the 15th of April 2024 and the flowers had just started to wither away, but it was still beautiful. A 500¥ fee is charged from entering the area.

No doubt on why this place has become no.1 sakura spot in Fukushima prefecture. Lot people, lot of vehicles and rush during the peak season. Entrance ticket is ¥500. From some car parks, there was a shuttle bus service, difficult to find nearby car parks. Lovely place, unique beauty. Worth seeing historical Takizakura tree. Few snack shops around, can try several snacks such as ice cream, takoyaki, curry bun etc.

It was exceptional, very very exceptional place to visit!! Even it was in late blooming already when we visited, we still very much impressed of her ☺️☺️☺️ I wish to go back again.

It's worth a 15 min detour trip which costs 300 yen per person. The ambience is nice with spring in full bloom. The place is the site of a big and old sakura tree surrounded by eateries and you can buy sakura plants from here as well.

It’s a beautiful place to enjoy cherry blossoms from a century-old tree!
