Descripción
Lodge pickup in Myoko. See Kasugayama Castle Ruins, Lake Nojiri views and 4,000 cherry trees lit at night at Takada Castle.
We pick you up at your lodge in Myoko Kogen at around 12:30. This private tour of about 8 hours is only for the cherry blossom season in April. Takada Castle Park in Joetsu is one of the three best night cherry blossom spots in Japan, with about 4,000 trees lit by lanterns.
Around 13:30 we visit Kasugayama, the hill where the famous warlord Uesugi Kenshin had his castle. You walk up to Kasugayama Shrine and look out over the city and the Sea of Japan. Allow about one hour.
Around 15:00 we drive to Takada. You walk the old gangi arcades of Takada town, wooden covered walkways made for heavy snow, and see the Takada movie theatre, one of the oldest in Japan, from outside.
Around 16:30 you enter Takada Castle Park in daylight. You walk the moat paths under the blossom and see the small rebuilt three-storey turret. Dinner is at the festival food stalls or a restaurant nearby; halal food is not guaranteed.
Around 18:00 the lanterns are lit. The trees glow pink over the moat, and the blossom reflects in the water by the Gokuraku Bridge. You have about one and a half hours to walk and take photos.
Around 19:45 we drive back to Myoko, arriving about 20:30.
Your plan is customizable: you can skip Kasugayama, add a stop at Lake Nojiri on the way, or arrive at the park earlier, within the tour time.
This is a private tour. Only your group.
If the Takada cherry blossom light-up is cancelled on your date, your driver-guide takes you to a similar place nearby instead. The tour price does not change. If you prefer, we can instead visit the park and Kasugayama in daylight and see the Joetsu coast.
