Sumida River Bridge Sakura Train 2025

Enjoy the best of the blossoms from a unique vantage point

Venue
Asakusa Station
When
Mar 22nd - Apr 6th 2025

The banks of Tokyo's Sumida River are lined with cherry blossom trees, and the waterway has been a popular sakura viewing destination since the Edo period. If you're looking for a unique way to appreciate the best of the river's blossoms from a different vantage point, consider the limited-time Sakura Train event from Tobu Railways.

The company will be operating a special Sakura Train between Asakusa Station and Minami-Kurihashi Station on Saturdays and Sundays from March 22 until April 6. The route will be deliberately slower than normal between Asakusa and Tokyo Skytree Station, allowing passengers on board to soak up all of the seasonal beauty.

Standard route fares apply. You can get an idea of what to expect from the Sakura Train via the video below (please note that the footage is from spring 2022).
