As the season of Sakura blossoms has stared, I've been visiting various places to get the best image of Sakura this year. And, I'm now in Meiji Jingu Shrine, one of the biggest shrines in Japan with more than 3 million visitors during new year's days.

I will definitely visit here again to enjoy Sakura blossoms in this holy spot soon!
