Asuwa River Cherry Tree Row

Asuwa River Cherry Tree Row

Asuwa River, which flows right through Fukui City, has approximately 600 cherry trees along 2.2km of its embankment. When the cherry trees are in full bloom, they form a pink tunnel that is illuminated during the cherry blossom season. This elegant scenery was chosen as one of Japan’s best 100 spots for viewing cherry blossoms.
