I’ll be in Japan with my(then to be) wife from April 20 to May 1.
Despite the late time in the season, we are hoping to see some Cherry Blossoms.
Hirosaki looks like a great option, but I’m not too sure if this schedule is crazy. Can anyone offer some advice?
My plan would be to start at Tokyo station, take an early (8 am)Shinkansen and arrive around 12:00.
We would arrive at Hirosaki Castle around 13:30. Do activities around Hirosaki for however long we can, before going to the airport to take the 18:30 flight departing to Osaka.
Is this schedule far too tight?
Another possibility would be flying from Osaka to Aomori, visit Hirosaki, then Shinkansen to Tokyo.
Any other options for doing a day trip to Hirosaki, from either Tokyo, Osaka, or any combination of the two?(Start at one. Return to the other)
Thanks so much!
