Known as "Sakura" in Japanese, the Japanese cherry blossom is one of the most significant icons of Japanese culture. It is symbolic of transience, beauty, and awakening. A hallmark of the Japanese calendar and the start of spring is the cherry blossom season. The colorful blossoms, which can range in color from white to pink, are admired by people all over the world for their beauty. Though most people identify cherry blossoms with Japan, you can also enjoy them at a location you probably wouldn't think of first: Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark.
