世界5大赏花胜地
当你发现下班了以后太阳还不紧不慢地挂在天上,你还能慢慢悠悠地喝杯啤酒的时候,证明春天已经来了。在春天里,还有什么比去看花展更合适的活动呢?
把衣柜里积了灰的碎花裙子翻出来吧,穿上它去参加一场鲜花烂漫的展览。记得要赶早,否则花儿们很快会被游人摘走,或被收集而压榨成一瓶瓶昂贵的精油。

高田公园的4000多株樱花树将点缀着上千盏竹灯笼(传统的鹅蛋形灯笼),照亮一整条“樱花大道”。 “今年比往常更冷一点,所以樱花也会盛开得稍晚一点,” 新潟国际旅游办公室的Kazuyuki Akiyama预测道。“我估计4月中下旬会是观赏樱花的最佳时节。”
Traditional Japanese food and local food specialties like yakitori and takoyaki will be sold from 300 outdoor stalls at the event during the festival. Also, don't miss the firework on the final day.
