 Chidori-ga-fuchi is one of the moats of a former
 Edo Castle and one of the more famous cherry
 blossom viewing spots in Tokyo. 
 Enjoy a boat ride along the moat, surrounded by
 cherry trees that are lit up in the evening.
 Yasukuni Shrine is nearby and you can enjoy
 cherry blossoms there are well.  If you walk a little
 further, you will be able to get to Higashi-Gyoen
  (the East Gardens of the Imperial Palace). 
 A Sakura Festival is held every April.
