▶ YAMATAKA JINDAI ZAKURA
山高神代ザクラ or Yamataka Jingū Zakura is a sakura (cherry blossom) tree located in Hokuto, Yamanashi, Japan. It is believed to be over 1,500 years old, making it one of the oldest sakura trees in the world. The tree is also considered a sacred tree, as it is located near the Yamataka Jingū Shrine.
The Yamataka Jingū Zakura's trunk has a circumference of 12.5 meters and its branches stretch over an area of 25 meters. The tree blooms in late April to early May, with its delicate pink blossoms attracting thousands of visitors every year. The Yamataka Jingū Zakura is also illuminated at night during the peak of the cherry blossom season, creating a breathtaking sight that is well-worth experiencing.
The tree has survived multiple earthquakes, typhoons, and other natural disasters over the centuries and has become a symbol of perseverance and resilience for the people of Hokuto. The sakura's longevity and cultural significance have made it a designated natural monument by the Yamanashi prefectural government.
Visitors to the Yamataka Jingū Zakura can enjoy hanami (cherry blossom viewing) with views of the Yatsugatake Mountains in the background. The tree can be accessed from Hokuto Station or by using a car and parking at the Yamataka Jingū Shrine.
Overall, the Yamataka Jingū Zakura is a remarkable natural wonder that has captured the hearts of visitors for generations.
