Cherry blossom: Rage of colour
It is springtime in Japan and the country is bathing in the colour of Sakura (local name for cherry blossom).
Cherry blossom is significant for the Japanese, as this marks the beginning of a new year.
The blossom symbolises the transience of human life, characterising an important trend of Japan's age old beliefs.
People from all ages attend the traditional Hanami, a picnic under the blooming trees while Japan attracts a big number of tourists from around the globe to celebrate cherry blossom.
