日本一美しい河津桜

The Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival celebrates the earliest blooming cherry trees in eastern Japan. 河津樱花祭是庆祝日本东部最早绽放樱花的节日。 While most of Honshu has to wait until mid-March to see cherry blossoms, 在本州大部分地区要等到三月中旬才能看到樱花， the Kawazu-zakura trees bloom about a month earlier. 河津樱却能早一个月盛开。 As a result, the festival, which runs from 2 February to the end of the month, 因此，从2月2日开始直到月底的樱花祭 is incredibly popular with visitors eager to see the end of winter 深受游客欢迎，他们渴望迎接冬天的结束， and the return of warmth and colour. 以及温暖和色彩的回归。 The festival stretches from the towns of Kawazu to Mine Onsen, 整个祭典从河津延伸至峰温泉， with the focus on the banks of the Kawazu River. 主会场设在河津川沿岸。 Food and drink stalls line the streets along the river, 沿河街道上摆满了饮食摊位， where you can also buy local crafts and souvenirs. 你还可以购买当地手工艺品和纪念品。 Events are organised to entertain and excite visitors, 现场也安排了各种活动来吸引和娱乐游客， and in the evening the trees are beautifully illuminated. 夜晚时樱花树还会被美丽点灯照亮。 Because of the train station, the Kawazu area can get crowded, 由于附近有车站，河津地区往往人潮拥挤， so if you want some peace and quiet to watch the fleeting blossoms, 如果你想安静地欣赏稍纵即逝的樱花， walk along the river to Mine Onsen. 可以沿着河边步行前往峰温泉。
