Takamatsu Chuo Park, located in the heart of the city near the former Takamatsu Castle ruins, is the most popular hanami gathering spot in Kagawa Prefecture. Dozens of cherry trees line the broad pathways, creating pink canopies ideal for picnicking under. The park is lively with food vendors and impromptu musical performances throughout the bloom. Proximity to Tamamo Park and the harbour makes it easy to combine with other sightseeing.
