Now that it's April, we can finally feel that spring is here.

　The weather has been unpredictable lately, with temperatures rising and falling, but finally the cherry blossoms are in full bloom once again at Maeda Seisakusho.

　Cherry blossoms have a great culture significance in Japan. In Japanese, they're called "sakura". They're associated with important milestones in life like graduation, starting school, and starting a new job. These events take place around the same time that cherry blossoms bloom each year.

　However, they are very sensitive to changes in weather. We only have about one week to enjoy their beauty after they bloom.

　Since these moments are fleeting, we want to share a little bit of this unique spring scenery with you all.

　These photos were taken on April 6th. The temperature reached a high of 24°C (75°F). It was a lovely and warm spring day.
