About this festival
The Osaka Mint Bureau opens its grounds for one week each April for the Sakura no Toorinuke, a walk of about 560 metres along the old Yodogawa river side of the site. The Mint says the main varieties are mostly late-blooming double-flowered cherry trees, including Kanzan, Shogetsu, Fugenzo and Yokihi. Recent editions have required advance reservation, with entry limited to the booked time slot.
