Zenpukuji park and Inokashira park (15 03 2020)

As I heard a news that cherry blossom (in this case Someiyoshino) starts blossom,

I visit Zenpukuji park first .

This park is famous of calm ponds which water from a natural spring named Osoinoi (slow well). In the park many neighbors visit for relaxing.
