This photo book is dedicated to sakura, the cherry blossom that has long captured the hearts of people in Japan and come to symbolise the spirit of the country.
Set against the historic landscapes of Kyoto, the book brings together a carefully curated selection of cherry blossom scenery, presented in rich, full-colour photography. The images reflect not only the beauty of the flowers themselves, but also the atmosphere of the seasons, places, and moments in which they bloom.
The photographs are selected by photographers Katsuhiko Mizuno and Hidehiko Mizuno, who have spent over forty years documenting cherry blossoms across Japan. This volume represents a culmination of their work, featuring approximately 150 images chosen from decades of observation and experience.
Designed as an English-language photo book with Japanese–English content, this edition is well suited as a cultural gift, a visual introduction to Japan, or a keepsake for readers who appreciate photography, nature, and Japanese aesthetics.
