Funakawa Cherry Trees, Asahi

Cherry trees line the river below the snowy mountains, sometimes reflecting in water-filled fields. The wider area is known for the spring combination of mountain snow, cherry blossoms, tulips and rapeseed, but this photograph shows only the cherry-and-mountain scene. Stay out of working fields.

Current visiting conditions

The photograph records 13 April 2024: cherry trees, mountains and reflections, without tulips or rapeseed in this frame. Spring 2026 shuttles have ended and are not a year-round service. Check the next season’s official transport and parking arrangements; stay out of working fields.

Getting there

The official organiser gives roughly 40 minutes on foot or 10 minutes by taxi from Ainokaze Toyama Railway Tomari Station. Special shuttle buses were tied to the 2026 spring event and are not a year-round service. Check the next season’s official access plan, parking reservations and visitor notices before travelling.
