Hanami-Season is over, but there are still holidays ahead to enjoy your spring time in Japan. Probably you already have heard of Golden Week - a collection of four national holidays within seven days. Usually in combination with weekends the Golden Week is one of the three busy holiday seasons in Japan besides Obon in Summer and New Year in Winter.
I would have loved to take part in this my last visit but it was so darn crowded that we ended up putting off going for an extra month!
