The Somei-Yoshino cherry trees are over 80 years old and are so beautiful and gorgeous that one anecdote is that a famous painter once stopped painting in the spring. From early to mid-April, about 4 of them come into full bloom, creating a splendid atmosphere that stretches for 800km. The view from the lakeshore, which is unique to Kaizu, is also popular. As a famous late-blooming cherry blossom spot in the Kinki region, the area is crowded with many flower-viewing visitors every year.
