- Take a visit to Tokyo's Yoyogi Park, Hachiko Crossing in Shibuya, a cafe called "Harbs" serving sakura cake and Inokashira Park in Kichijoji. Also check out our next video which goes to Yoyogi Park, Shinjuku Gyoen, Odaiba, the Meguro River and Ueno Park.
(Watch) • Cherry Blossoms Around...
Knowing the cherry blossoms (sakura) is to know Japan itself. Their beauty comes quickly and is short lived -- falling from the tree after only 10 days. The samurai lived knowing their life would be short, and that spirit is in each cherry blossom.
Called "mono no aware" which is deeply rooted in Buddhism, Japanese have a strong connection to all things. The beauty felt for the sakura is deep. Mono no aware is also an important factor in how Japanese connect to manga, anime and things important to them.
In this episode, John travels around Tokyo taking in the cherry blossoms spots, investigating hanami (cherry blossom viewing and picnicking) and talk with some hanami-goers. Why is there such a big celebration for the cherry blossoms in Japan?
This show has been created and produced by John Daub. He's been living and working in Japan for over 15 years and regularly reports on an International TV Show for Japan's International Channel.

I should just live in Japan for a year just to experience all of the different events and cultural festivals!
This guy makes the best videos to guide you in Japanese culture/food n facts.Imo ^.^

I love cherry blossoms, they are so beautiful
I lived in the Washington DC area for many years & the Cherry Blossoms there are so beautiful !
Thank you Japan for giving them to our country so many years ago. One day, they will be great old trees like the ones in this park.
Thank you!
You should check out the Cherry Blossoms in Newark someday. A nicer display than DC. This was the only year I didnt go to the festival there since 2003 because of Corona Virus.
when I first watched one of ur vids about vending machines I thought this show is airing in a tv and started researchng what channel and time LOL when I found out that you just made it I'm amazed you vids are GREAT!
It remembered me of the character' sakura' of anime movie' your name'. It was fantastic and surely emotional.
I liked the yellow jacket guy's speach , he sounded very cultivated and he didn't do that head nodding thing that japanese people usually do when they talk .
*That sakura Cake looks beautiful. ^^*
Omg I'm going to Japan, even God can't stop me
You shall not pass!
@@user-he4rh4kd5r maybe he has some problems of his brain
I would like to live in Japan!!!
Awesome!!! JAPAN are so cool!!!!! I Love JAPAN!!!!!!!!
I love Japan.
what a beautiful scene in Japan!
I love the sakura season very much! Beautiful images and story of Japan. Thanks!
That was really great insight with the old man in the yellow about the cherry blossoms. I didn't know it goes back to the samurai times! Interesting.
0:41 -- The cherry trees are spectacular, beautiful.
Nice stuff - love the sakura season here! ^_-
Can't wait to see the Sakura Blossoms in April. First time I'll be traveling to Japan. 😍
Love all your videos ... thank you so much for making them !!! 😊😊
The busiest intersection in the world and I only saw like one electronic billboard, quite nice to see it not TOTALLY over run by technology like with screams plastered on every building I feel like it takes away from the beauty of the city!
LOVED IT.........

Though it wasn't spoken, I sensed a bitter-sweet memory at 5:10.
Your video's are really great and informative but there's a 'cheesy' quality about them that is hilarious!! Keep it up - very entertaining!
Thanks for "getting it" and enjoying the cheese. -John
i love your honesty
Its not cheesy. Its objective and very family friendly. He does a wonderful job with his narrative and portrayal of a typical moment in Japanese day to day life.

Hey John, first of all I love your videos 👌. Did that Cherry blossom cake have a layer of Matcha at the bottom? Looking forward to your next video. I think it would be awesome if you did an only in Japan episode strictly on Pokemon. I hope you are having a great day and hope you reply toy comment, it would make my day.
🎎🎌🎏i choose visit Japan ...but my plan ...lost ...how I can go there....Not easy to go ...🎌🎏

john, how is the cherry blossom like after 6 April? im planning to go with my friend next year during cherry blossom season.
(At 2:07):It's a building. I thought this was a video about cherry-- OHH.
(Joke)
That one girl around 1:00 just looks like Janice from The Muppets!
This video is also very good. You have made many videos in different parts of Japan. Can you please make one in Fukuoka ?
+Aneesh Sharma I plan to head to Kyushu this winter. Kagoshima, Kumamoto and Fukuoka / Hakata (for ramen!) Thanks for watching and the nice comment! -john
+WAORYU ONLYinJAPAN Oh that's amazing. I have also been to Fukuoka and Hakata. They are very beautiful cities. All the best.
Pls upload more vedio I see you all vedios pls
Does the cherry blossum tree actually produce cherries or are they like the trees in Washington DC which bloom beautifully and smell of cherry, producing a crab apple!
I might be in japan in the end of march next year :) do you think i will get to see the Cherry blossom ? I would really love to
Fto0osha I think so! That seems like the best time but every year is a little different. If the blossoms have not arrived in Tokyo by then, you can travel west to Kyoto and they should be in bloom then. -John
man john has a beautiful life most of us dream of...
+Exhibitless How?
I said "most"
Exhibitless You mean being a host for a show?
New episodes please!
Yep! ^^
@3:40 HEY ITS A BLACK DUDE!!! (Bottom right of screen)
例えば楽天の田中将大の連投に桜の影響が感じられる。人々に強い印象を与える事は選手生命に勝るという考え。
+뷘아요 Cheery blossom originated in Himalaya, not Korea.
13 hater!!! so heartless!!!
I enjoy all of your videos but It would be better if there is an Arabic translation choice
I'll ask about that. -John
The original origin of cherry blossoms is Jeju Island in Korea.
can't agree more, even confucius originated from Korea, right?
you should consider becoming a cultural news reporter.
THEY STOOD WHERE dAN AND PHIL DID I CANt
+PandaGirl1409 I can
what?
Okami anyone?
You make great vids I just wish you would also comment ? Tks
花見は祝祭ではありません。Hanami is not celebration 人や神を対象にするのがお祝い。花見は単純に自然を愛でるもの。
桜が花の代名詞になったのは平安時代。武士はまだ存在していない。桜は生のはかなさを感じさせる。武士の感性とは全く違う。潔さは武士の姿だが、桜が散るのを潔いと感じる日本人はほとんどいない。だいたい自分の意志で散っているわけでもないし、、、
sakura cilibration cames from china culture. china culture make this cilibration from mongol and scythe cilibration "nauryz" is a day of 22 march when day equal to night. All human cultures are common.
Did I hear right? You have to be under 40 to go to the festival????
桜を愛でる習慣は、平和な時代の奈良時代や平安時代が起源でしょう。貴族の和歌の主題として、盛んに詠まれています。西行が生涯桜を愛したのは、有名です。西行が愛した奈良県の吉野山の桜は、1,000年以上、植樹され続けています。侍がはかない人生の散り際を桜に例えたのは、江戸時代後期の本居宣長や吉田松陰からでしょう。昭和の軍国主義の時代に、国に命を捧げる精神が尊いとして、この考えが利用された。侍が領国の防衛のために建設した城郭には、敵が隠れる桜の木は、一本も植樹されていなかった。（英語表記が望ましいが、とりあえず日本語記述で失礼します。）
