Today I went to Shiba-zakura Festival at the foot of Mount Fuji. The festival is held from 15th April to 28th May. From the festival site, I can see a view of shiba-zakura (mossphlox) flowerbed below the famous Mount Fuji. This year is the 10th anniversary of the festival. This festival is the largest shiba-zakura festival in Japan.

There are thousands of pink, purple, and white shiba-zakuras covering the festival area.The view of the shiba-zakuras were so magnificent and stunning. When the wind blows, you can smell the fragrance of these flowers. You could also take a picture of the mini Shiba-zakura Fuji, a shiba-zakura flowerbed that shaped like Mount Fuji.
Beside taking picture you can also try the Panorama foot bath and the Panorama Cafe, where you can relax while enjoying the view of Mount Fuji and shiba-zakura. There is also a Photo contest that you can try to take part in, a souvenir shop to buy some limited-edition souvenir such as Fujiyama Cookies, Fuji Shiba-zakura Manju, Fuji Shiba-zakura limited "Shingen Mochi", Sakura leaf Rice Cakes etc. and you can also try some delicious Mt. Fuji Gourmet. Finally there are some live performances to brighten your day. That's all from me for today, see you on my next post.
