* We estimate the best viewing periods based on our own on-site observations and prediction algorithm for the major cities and on first-opening (kaika) predictions by the Japan Weather Association for the minor cities. We consider "best viewing" to start a little bit before full bloom and last into the period when petals start to fall.
