Oshino Hakkai Cherry Blossoms – Fuji’s Spring Water & Sakura Paradise

#cherryblossom25 Nestled at the foot of Mount Fuji, the legendary Oshino Hakkai —eight crystal-clear spring ponds fed by Fuji’s snowmelt—transforms into a pink-hued dreamscape each spring when wild mountain cherry trees (yamazakura) bloom around its thatched-roof villages. Unlike crowded tourist spots, here you’ll find petals floating on mirror-like ponds, with Fuji’s peak towering in the background—a scene straight from a ukiyo-e woodblock print.
