Tulips aren't the only flowers you can see in Amsterdam.
This park in Amsterdam has 400 cherry blossom trees You don’t need to travel to Asia to see cherry blossom this spring – just head to this ‘stunningly beautiful’ park 20 minutes outside Amsterdam’s city centre. Although the gorgeous pale pink petals are associated with Japan, where a festival dedicated to them attracts millions of tourists every year, UK travellers can also have a unique sakura experience as close to home as The Netherlands.
Visitors are only allowed to have picnics in Kersenbloesempark on certain days The news comes after a new warning was shared for those heading to Kyoto, Osaka or Nara for the pink flowers. While Japan’s annual cherry blossom event brings in visitors around the world every March to April, this year things are likely to be different. Usually the blooming of the pink sakura happens in late March, but in 2023, this appeared ten days earlier than predicted.
