I went to my favorite shrine(Koma-shrine) every month to visit😌

These are the most common type of cherry blossoms in Japan called "Somei yoshino"

Higan-zakura is a kind of cherry that is older than Somei yoshino,
and it is over 300 years old!😲

Unfortunately it bloomed a little early so some of the flowers were scattered.
But definitely a great tree

There is a trace of some treatment on the trunk of the tree↓
