Roppongi's Hidden Gem: The Prettiest Cherry Blossom Street in Tokyo

#cherryblossom25 If you’re in Tokyo during sakura season, Roppongi Sakurazaka (六本木さくら坂) is seriously underrated — but once you go, it might become your favorite too. Here's a detailed sakura stroll guide based on my visit: 1. Why it’s amazing: I’ve visited multiple cherry blossom spots, but this one felt the most relaxing and immersive. The road is lined with dense cherry blossom trees on both sides, and the branches form arched tunnels over the street — so dreamy! There’s a pedestrian bridge in the middle of the road. From the top, you get a panoramic view of the pink canopy below — chef’s kiss. Best of all: it’s not super crowded, and traffic is light. Perfect for slow walks and photos without stress. 2. Location: Search for “Sakurazaka Park” or “Roppongi Sakurazaka” on Google Maps. Closest subway: Roppongi Station, exit 1C. Walk straight for ~200m, then take a left — you'll see the start of the cherry blossom street. 3. Pro tips for the walk: Start walking towards the sun (backlight) for that ethereal glow, then turn around for front-lit shots — the blossoms look whiter and softer. Midway, you’ll reach the footbridge — don’t miss it, it’s the highlight spot. After the bridge, continue a bit further to a zebra crossing — it’s perfect for photos of walking under sakura with an urban backdrop. (But watch for cars!) #travel
