There are a myriad of incredible destinations to enjoy sakura season in Tokyo, and one of Shinagawa's top spots is Gotenyama Garden. A festival is held at the garden when the blossoms are at their best, and it includes additional activities like shamisen performances, after-dark illuminations, tea ceremonies (participation is via a lottery system), and plenty more.
