Gotenyama Cherry Blossom Festival 2023 will be held!

Beyond the next generation, feel the sparkle of spring that never fades

Gotenyama is depicted in Katsushika Hokusai's Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji, and has been loved as a cherry blossom viewing spot since the Edo period. This time, which will be held for the first time in four years, in addition to lighting up the cherry blossoms at night, a fantastic "cherry haze" will be produced.
In addition, we have prepared content that sublimates the culture of the Edo period into a modern style, such as a new sense of tea party where you can experience "smoking tea" using tea leaves instead of tobacco leaves.
In addition, how about experiencing the arrival of spring in Shinagawa and Gotenyama through a number of food and cultural experiences that coincide with cherry blossom viewing?
