When to Go
March – April · October – November
Japan
A temple closed to the public at dawn, cherry blossom from a private ryokan, and a sushi counter held for you alone.

03
Cherry blossom from a private ryokan
A traditional inn taken in full — your own onsen, your own garden, the sakura at first light.
