Typically, the annual Sakura Matsuri festival takes place over a weekend, during the last weekend of April or the first weekend of May. From 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on both days, visitors are welcome to come and go as they please. To avoid crowds and participate in several activities and performances, it is best to arrive early. The garden, open year-round, also offers stunning cherry blossom views outside of the festival’s dates. Show more
