Sakura

Sakura is best known within Chiba Prefecture for the National Museum of Japanese History, a major institution devoted to the country’s past and material culture. The city lies on the Kashima River in northern Chiba, inland from Tokyo Bay, where lowland waterways and cultivated land shape its setting. Sakura Castle Park preserves the site of an Edo-period castle that once served as the seat of the Sakura domain; its earthworks and moats give the museum district a clear historical frame. In spring, the park’s cherry trees draw local walkers, while the area around Keisei Sakura Station links the former castle grounds with daily city life.
