4.68 9

Last update :

The Meguro River flows through the Setagaya, Meguro, and Shinagawa wards of Tokyo until it reaches Tokyo Bay.
From around the Tokyo Den-en-toshi Line’s Ikejiri-Ohashi Station to Shimomeguro, there are around 800 Yoshino cherry trees lined up along the 4km stretch of river.
During cherry blossom season from late March through early April, the area is packed with people thanks to the cherry blossom festivals and nighttime illuminations.
There are plenty of unique restaurants and shops in the area too, so it’s a great place to take a walk even outside of springtime.

Highlights

  • One of Tokyo’s best cherry blossom viewing spots.
  • In spots where the river is narrow, branches from cherry trees on either side of the river overlap to create a beautiful cherry blossom tunnel (when the blossoms are in bloom).
  • There are many bridges that cross the river, including many unique ones.
  • Many chic restaurants and cafes in the area.

    目黑川沿岸種植大量櫻花樹,每年三月底櫻花盛開形成一條壯觀的粉紅隧道,最好是搭乘賞櫻遊覽能夠欣賞長達4公里的櫻花盛開美景,除此之外到了晚上人潮聚集湧現越晚人越多,路邊有許多的攤販小吃不用擔心填飽肚子問題,夜櫻點燈只開到九點。

    每年目黑川櫻花祭,800棵櫻花樹齊放,超美有氣勢的,但是人潮也是超驚人,入夜點燈夜櫻也是另一番美景喔。

  • 趙維

    河堤兩旁全部開滿了櫻花,粉色白色的櫻花特別漂亮。

  • 吳凱

    建議平日來,人才不會太多拍完照後還可以在附近咖啡店小歇一下。

  • 施美恩

    如果想來看櫻花的話,一定要來這,3月來看,真的是開的美不勝收!
