Get a taste of Japan in the heart of Copenhagen at the annual Sakura Festival in Langelinie Park. This cultural event occurs at the end of April, bringing the Japanese love for cherry blossom trees, or Sakuras, to the streets of Denmark’s capital.
The park becomes a living canvas of pink as 200 cherry blossom trees bloom, putting on an unrivalled spring display.
A Japanese proverb says: “If you can’t go to Japan, let Japan come to you” – and that’s exactly what the Sakura Festival does. For two days, Langelinie Park resonates with the sounds of traditional drum shows, folk dances and martial arts performances that form the backbone of Japanese culture.
So come and immerse yourself in a day filled with Zen, vibrant spring blooms and Japanese traditions in the beautiful surroundings of Langelinie Park.
