【Sakura・Peak Viewing】National Treasure Matsumoto Castle

Full bloom cherry blossoms reflecting on National Treasure Matsumoto Castle
Matsumoto Castle Park and the surrounding moat feature about 320 cherry trees, including Someiyoshino, Kohiganzakura, and Shidarezakura, blooming against the backdrop of the snow-capped Northern Alps. The light pink cherry blossoms and the jet-black main keep create a contrast unique to this season. The scenery, where historical architecture and nature blend, invites viewers back to ancient times. Additionally, the sparkle of the water in the moat further enhances the beauty of the landscape. Don’t miss this iconic spring view of Matsumoto.
