お花見に行こう！（おはなみにいこう）

Ohanami ni Ikou! 

Let’s go for Hanami!

Hey guys! 

Vanessa Here. 

Have you ever went to a garden for Hanami.

If you stay in Japan, I think you’ll never meet someone who hasn’t gone to Hanami before.

But, do you guys know what they do during Hanami?

You can see from the Kanji :

花（はな）Hana = Flower

見る（みる）Miru = See

花見（はなみ）Hanami = See Flower

They go for a Hanami means that the go to see the flowers.

Here is what friends and family here in Japan do. 

Buy Drinks, either non alcohol or alcohol drinks but usually Ocha = Tea

and Snacks of course!

They will sit down on a mat or carpet, gather with friends and family chit chat and enjoy the scenery of the beautiful sakura tree. ^^

 

From babies to adults and elderly, they gather together around. 
It’s a really good moment to have a conversation to have fun and just see the flowers.
That’s is what spring is all about right??


 
Running and Dating

 
Even Jumping roping with friends...

 
Or alone like that girl on that picture..

This is HANAMI. Do you want to go for Hanami with your friends and family?
Come to Japan and lets go for Hanami!!!
