Hanami is a Japenese festival that only comes round once a year. This is a introduction.

Guys it is very easy to understand. My little brother who is 4 understood it. So read it if you can

Japanese sakura, or "cherry blossoms" come into bloom once a year during April and March for only two weeks! It seems everyone in Japan goes crazy talking about the sakura, taking pictures, and having parties.There are quite a few places in Japan that are famous only for their cherry blossom trees. People flock to these towns and cities when thesakura are in bloom.Wakayama has a fair share of cherry blossoms, but the best place to see them is Wakayama Castle. A "hanami" is a cherry blossom viewing party. Everyone must have been in one had been to one, either in the castle or in a more exotic locale. Most people have their "hanami" at lunch. Businessmen take their lunchboxes and head out with their collegues to picnic under the shade of the cherry trees. They roll out the blue tarps everyone seems to have, and stake out their prime picnic spot. People come quite early to get a good spot.Some people even stay overnight to grab one for the next afternoon! I've heard that there is sometimes a lot of drunkeness and karaoke at hanami, but all it mostly is that people stroll through the castle with small families, groups of friends and co-workers, enjoying the beauty that comes for only a short time each year.
