Mar 20 (Japan Times) - Tokyo saw cherry blossoms begin blooming Sunday, four days earlier than the average year, the Meteorological Agency said.
The agency made the announcement after confirming that a Somei-Yoshino cherry tree monitored by the agency at Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo’s Chiyoda Ward began blooming.
In 2020 and 2021, cherry trees started flowering in Tokyo on March 14, the earliest date on record since 1953.
