The cherry tree-lined path of Hokke-zaka slope.
The cherry tree-lined path is very beautiful, with the contrast of the mossy ground. Perhaps because it’s not part of the usual tourist route, it’s not as crowded here.

The parking lot at Johsaien, a tourist facility within Kumamoto Castle, is full of tour buses. It's extremely crowded. Many people were sitting on blankets, enjoying the cherry blossom viewing.
After walking about 30 minutes from Kumamoto Castle, We headed to Mannichi-yama Green Park.
