Good question, Jesse!
The hanami (cherry blossom viewing) season perhaps in Japan is the most magical time of year.
with the first intimations of flowering early, and do not stop until the flowers are completely fallen, hanami season is full of picnics, Saki, Celebration, cold nights at the moon, and Memories.

Tokyo
Despite being a big city, Tokyo full of beautiful hanami is spots.
For the most breathtaking views imaginable, head to Chidorigafuchi . We also recommend Shinjuku Gyoen , one of Tokyo's most beautiful gardens for a picnic. It can be crowded, but worth it (note that it is a small entrance fee, and sake and beer were known to be confiscated at the gate).
At night head over to Naka -Meguro, Yoyogi Park or Ueno Park for a festive night of drinking and hanami . Locals come prepared with blankets, barbecues, warm clothing, and lots of drinks.
If you are lucky, will be rewarded with an otherworldly sea of cherry blossoms.

Kyoto
Kyoto is Japan's most popular hanami target, and the with good reason. No matter where you go in this city, will come on one Hanami celebration underway.
During the day we recommend a walk along the philosophers path . A quiet walk at most times of the year, this is a nice way of having hundreds of cherry trees lined along a canal meanders. Start near Ginkakuji, beautiful Silver Pavilion, and at the end at Nanzenji Temple.
At night head Maruyama Park , in the historic Higashiyama district, right by the Gion geisha district. Find Cherry Blossom Festivals underway, eat with food stalls and crowds of people, drink and have a great time.
Do not miss the breathtaking Shimbashi Dori to find a road along the picturesque Shirakawa Canal in Gion, which is lined with cherry blossoms

Kanazawa
If you want a smaller city that is full of history and great hanami , recommend we Kanazawa.
Kanazawa to be a best-preserved of Japan's cities with picturesque Geisha and Samurai districts, and is perhaps best known for to one of Japan's Top 3 gardens home, Kenrokuen .
Kenrokuen is an amazing place to enjoy hanami , both during the day and night. When the cherry blossoms are at their peak, the entrance to the park is omitted, and the atmosphere is simply magical!
Kanazawa is easy to reach by train from Tokyo or Kyoto. The Hokuriku Shinkansen (Hokuriku Shinkansen) takes you from Tokyo to Kanazawa in just 2 hours 30 minutes. between Kanazawa and Kyoto Travel is also easy to do with the limited express JR Thunderbird train travel in a little more than 2 hours
