Two very old cherry trees beautiful during the blooming season

While the oldest tree has withered, the ones that blossom deep red that can be seen behind it are named “Katsuya-zakura”, the second-generation “Kamanokoshi cherry trees.”

During the cherry tree blooming season, the contrast with the remaining snow on the mountains is beautiful.
