The blossoming of sakura (cherry blossoms) is an occasion for celebration all over Japan between late March and early April. Hanami (cherry blossom viewing) in Japan often involves a picnic party to enjoy cherry blossoms as well as food and drinks. People have a Hanami party with friends, family or colleagues under the cherry tree and have fun.

Happy Lunar New Year 2021!
Today is the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar—officially starting the Year of the Ox! Lunar New Year, also referred to as Chinese New Year or the Spring Festival, is a time to honor ancestors and look forward to prosperity in the year ahead.

This Lunar New Year marks the official transition out of the Year of the Rat–believed to be one of constant change–and into the Year of the Ox, which is traditionally associated with things moving at a more slow and steady pace. The ox is the second animal of the Chinese zodiac and symbolizes hard work, positivity, and fertile harvest.

Throughout most of Asia and around the world, the lunar new year is warmly welcomed with traditional foods.

Sugamo Jizo Dori shopping street is lovingly described as a "Harajuku for grannies", it maybe due to the fact that the main shopping street is filled with traditional stores targeted toward the elderly.

One of the main attractions of this area is Koganji Temple, home of the Togenuki Jizo (splinter-removing Buddha). It is said that visiting this temple helps cure ailments.
Sugamo is also known for its traditional sweets, especially Shio-Daifuku, pounded rice cakes that contain sweet bean paste and salt to moderate the sweetness.
One type of the famous goods in the street is red underwear which is held to be lucky and good for your health!

A nice place to visit with small eateries, groceries and gift shops. The prices are budget, not an over-priced tourist area.
