Aeon Town Nanakodai

An unusual hanami spot

Most of the year, Aeon Town Nanakodai in Noda City is just another shopping mall. The mall, which occupies what was once an agricultural community, has preserved many of the trees of the former farms. The parking lot of the mall is shaded by dozens of mature trees. in the south west corner of the mall is a tiny playground under the boughs of massive cherry trees. It's a surprising and unusual spot for hanami. The businesses, including a Tsutaya book store, Sanki general goods store, Max Valu supermarket, and various restaurants, are convenient spots for shopping. After you're done your chores, this grove of cherry trees make it a lovely spot to let children play, and take a breather from your daily routine.
