Sakura #2: Tsukishima and Hamarikyū gardens
These are my sakura pictures from this weekend. We were in the Tsukishima (famous for monja-yaki) and Tsukiji (Tokyo's largest fish market, where we ate delicious fresh sushi), and went to Hama-rikyū gardens, a large park with an entrance fee. The park not being mainly sakura trees I should be posting more pictures of it soon.
Photos: 1. View from Tsukishima bridge, which you can compare with this one from January (1024x768), 2. Sakura tree, in Hamarikyū gardens (1024x768), 3. Sakura over lake, in Hamarikyū gardens (1024x768)

Nice pics. It's weird to see a tree with flowers tho, since we only have tree's with leaves over here.

You have to pay to get into a park?!

Well, it's actually a "famous site with high historical significance". Shinjuku-gyoen also costs a small amount to enter since it's a national garden.
These parks are rather nice as they're well kept and cleaner, and there are no wanderers or homeless. They're sure worth a visit!
