April is the beautiful time of weeping willow flowers, and fresh green.
At the riverbank, there are people who enjoy cherry blossom viewing. |

In May, the flowers are over and the leaves are starting to grow. There aren't so many flower visitors there, and there are people who take occasional walks. |

There are many overgrown leaves in summer, but there are still few in April.
This is a good time to see the tree shape and enjoy the yellow flowers and fresh green. |

It will be the first visit in 5 years, but it looks fine as before. The long-growing leaves will sway in the wind again this year. |

The leaves were overgrown that the trunk could not be seen. The light of May will encourage more growth. |

There is this weeping willow on the road along the river where the cherry blossoms are planted. Cherry-blossom viewers look at the flowers, but they don't seem to be interested in the weeping willow. I hope you will notice the flowers on this tree as well. |

I visited to photograph the weeping willow flowers. Many flowers had fallen, but many were blooming beautifully, swaying in the wind. |

The cherry blossoms have just started to bloom, but the area is bustling with people wanting to enjoy cherry blossom viewing early. The weeping willow flowers are in full bloom, but it would be even more spectacular if the cherry blossoms were in bloom. |

<How to visit> Cross the road from the north side of the atomic bomb dome and go straight along the river. |
