Plum trees in full bloom

　Plum trees are in full bloom throughout Kyoto City. At Jonangu and Umemiya Taisha, the blossoms have already finished blooming, but tourist spots such as Kitano Tenmangu, Toji, and Tenryuji, which are currently in full bloom, are all crowded.

　At this time of year, there are still few tourist groups arriving by bus, suggesting that there are few foreign tourists and that one can enjoy the tourist spots in peace. However, all the tourist spots were very popular with Japanese visitors.

　In two weeks, the cherry trees will finally bloom. Kyoto will then experience its busiest days.
