Panduan Hanami untuk Pengunjung

🌸 Apa itu Hanami?

Hanami (花見) literally means "flower viewing." It's the centuries-old Japanese tradition of gathering under cherry blossom trees with food, drinks, and good company. Today it's a beloved springtime celebration — parks fill with picnic sheets, food stalls, and happy crowds from late March through May.
