Who said there's no place to picnic here?

Spring means cherry blossom season

Only in springtime

Of the many famous spots for seeing the cherry blossoms in the spring, this is not one of them. While spaces to spread out a picnic blanket are quite limited, a walk along the waterfront from the far end of Yamashita Park to the Minato Mirai 21 district is a very pretty one. The area is scenic at any time of the year, but is made especially so with the blooming flowers on branch tips.
