There are many places to enjoy cherry blossom along the Kamogawa in Kyoto. One good spot is near Kita-oji Bridge. When I went there, glorious weeping pink cherry blossom overhung the path, while paler upright species of cherry blossom lined the opposite riverbank. Food vendors set up their stalls, a koto concert provided traditional style entertainment. Kyoto Botanical gardens is nearby, so you could easily visit there as well.
