Where to find Peach blossom?

Any recommendations where to see some peach blossom in the Kanto area? I usually visit Koga for its peach blossom festival, but would like to see other areas too.

I´m a german girl living in the center of Tokyo, but my true love belongs to the countryside of Japan (especially Chiba and Hokkaido). I love traveling in Japan and explore hidden areas.
I want to help people with my articles to get in touch with the Japanese culture and all the beautiful places you can explore.

Besides traveling around, I love trains, handcraft and my little rabbits.

    I'm sorry I am late to answer. Definitely Higashichichibu, it is quite rightly nicknamed "an earthly paradise" but unfortunately they are passed their peak now. They were way early this year. https://insaitama.com/earthly-paradise-hanamomo-no-sato/

    Sakura Castle Park in Sakura City is famous for its cherry blossoms, but there are groves of peach trees. Same with Izumi Park in Chiba City.

    I've heard good things from friends about Fuefuki City in Yamanashi: https://www.yamanashi-kankou.jp/foreign/english/spot/p1_4266.html It's still on my bucket list! :)

What's on your "generic" local manhole?

My local area has some specialty manholes (including some from the Gundam manhole project not too far away!) but the most common "generic" one features mountains and watermelon. Fairly representative of the region, I think! What's on yours?

Do you have a favorite mascot?

The other day, on "Strawberry Day" I wrote about "Yoshimin", the strawberry mascot of Yoshimi. I thought it might be fun to introduce a few others, so I've just written about "Tokimo" the mascot of Kawagoe. And I plan to introduce a couple of my favorites. It begs the question, do you have a favorite mascot? And how about writing a post on City-cost about your favorite or a local mascot? Pictured "Umerin" who I plan to write about next!

Who is your hero!?

Today, January 16th, is Hero Day. Who is your favorite hero, fictional or otherwise? The first one who comes to my mind for me is a real life person; Mary Robinson, a former president of Ireland (moreover, the first female president), and a former United Nations High Commissioner of Human Rights, among other impressive roles. I had the great pleasure of meeting her in December, a dream come true. I was trying to think about who my favorite fictional hero is. I have not come to conclusion yet! There is such a choice. Do you have one?
