Weeping Cherry Tree at Kamo-ohashi Bridge

　The weeping cherry tree on the right bank of Kamo-ohashi Bridge, just beside our guesthouse, is now at its peak. Although there is only one tree here, it is a popular spot among locals where you can take your time to admire it.

　When I was looking for a property to start a guesthouse in Kyoto, I came across a place near Kamo Ohashi Bridge and felt naturally drawn to it. It was a place where I instinctively felt, ‘If I’m to continue living in Kyoto, this is the place.’

　Nearby is Honman-ji Temple, also famous for its weeping cherry blossom, where a weeping cherry blossom illumination event is being held until 5 April this year.
