Cherry Blossom Day - Olinda

Visitors to the National Rhododendron Gardens will find themselves immersed in the colourful cherry blossom blooms on Hanami Day.

Hanami is the custom of viewing the beauty of flowers, but it mostly refers to the Sakura or Cherry blossom Japan's unofficial national flower.

Every spring in modern Japan, crowds of people sit under the blooming cherry blossoms, usually on plastic tarps, and have a picnic celebration.

Come and enjoy the beauty of the blossoms along with the myriad of other plants and enjoy the traditional Tea Ceremony for a gold coin donation.
