Osaka Mint : Sakura again
My first visit to Osaka Mint was last 2006 with my Thai friend Joy. It was a weekend and as expected the place was jam-packed with people that you could hardly move much more take decent photo.
This year, me being jobless still finally have the time again to visit Osaka Mint. Osaka Mint opened its gate to the public once a year for a week when the Sakura are blooming. They have more than 300 trees on its grounds. It started today, April 16 and will end April 22,2008. The gates opened from 9:30 to 16:30, admission is free.
