Sakura is in full bloom in various parts of the Kansai region, and at Osaka Castle Park, people are seen enjoying cherry blossoms while taking a walk while the person in charge calls for refraining from viewing cherry blossoms with food and drink as a countermeasure against the infection of the new corona.
Every year, many people come to see the cherry blossoms at Osaka Castle Park in Chuo Ward, Osaka, which has about 3,000 cherry trees.
The group that manages the park has requested that the park be laid out and refrain from eating and drinking cherry blossoms in order to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, and a signboard will be set up and the person in charge will drive around the park. While calling for cooperation.
Visitors enjoyed the cherry blossoms, which were nearing full bloom, by taking a walk and taking pictures and videos.
A male office worker in his 40s in Osaka said, "I enjoyed walking with my daughter. It was a customary cherry blossom viewing to make noise, but I will put up with it."
In addition, a woman in her thirties in Osaka said, "I wanted to show my son Sakura for the first time. During my pregnancy, I couldn't go out much because of Corona, so I decided to go out. It made my heart radiant when I saw it. "
On the other hand, some people eat and drink in the park, and the group that manages the park will continue to call for it.
