The 1000-metre street near Tokyo Station is lined with 150 cherry blossom trees on both sides. Because the street is relatively narrow, it creates a beautiful sakura tunnel in full-blossom days. The busy street and its surrounding area are also the hub of shopping malls, restaurants and food stands. Illuminated cherry blossom trees are even more fascinating at night.
