Iwataro's weeping cherry blossoms

Japan, 509-2502 Shimi, Hagiwara-cho, Gero City, Gifu Prefecture

It was named ``Iwataro's Weeping Cherry Blossom'' after the name of the person who planted this cherry tree. This gigantic tree, said to be over 120 years old, stands halfway up the embankment, and the sight of it in full bloom covering passersby is a sight to behold. When you look up from directly below, you can enjoy it as if you were taking a shower of cherry blossoms.
