Hanami with WaWo Japan at Ueno Park

🌸 Hanami with WaWo Japan at Ueno Park 🌸
Hanami (花見) is the beloved Japanese tradition of gathering under blooming cherry trees to celebrate spring with food, drinks, and friends.

On April 4, WaWo Japan hosted a community hanami party in Tokyo’s famous Ueno Park, known for its stunning sakura views.

We shared pizza, homemade treats, local sake, and meaningful conversations with guides, locals, tourists, and our amazing international community.

Here’s to more shared moments under the blossoms 🌸✨
