Sakura Light-up at Sankeien

Sankeien in Yokohama is a traditional Japanese garden that houses an impressive three-storey pagoda from Kyoto, a mansion that once belonged to a daimyo lord. During the spring, 250 cherry blossom trees start to bloom here, and visitors from March 28 to April 6 can catch a special light-up event in the evening from 6pm to 9pm (last entry 8.30pm). The garden will be open until 9pm, but some paths, including the one that leads to the three-story pagoda, will be closed after 5pm. To see the sakura light-up, you need to pay the entrance fee of ¥900 (children ¥200).
