In mid March I visited Ajimano-en Park in Echizen City to see if plum trees there were blooming yet. It was mid March, so they should be blooming, shouldn't they? To my great disappointment, they weren't. It looks like I underestimated snowy Fukui. However, although spring flowers were not yet blooming, I could enjoy melancholy scenery in a beautifully landscaped Japanese garden waiting for spring. To me not having snow was itself bliss. There is a small path lined with cherry trees inside the park which will be beautiful when spring finally visits here in April. I will definitely come back again to see it! For autumn photos of the park please see this photo story on Japan Travel.
