Roppongi Sakurazaka is a sloping road in Minato City, Tokyo, known as a cherry blossom viewing spot. The cherry blossoms are also illuminated at night.
The combination of the steep hill and the rows of cherry trees stretching for 400 meters (1312 feet) is a spot unique to the hilly Roppongi area.
Due to its nature as a cherry blossom viewing spot, it is best to visit in late March or early April, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom in Tokyo.
Roppongi Sakurazaka is located close to Roppongi Hills, known for its skyscraper and Japanese garden with cherry trees, and Keyakizaka, where luxury brand stores are located and illuminated in winter.
Also within walking distance (about 15 minutes) of Roppongi Sakurazaka is Tokyo Midtown, a complex that includes The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo, retail stores, museums, and parks, and is known for its illuminated cherry blossoms.
When visiting Roppongi Sakurazaka, it is a good idea to combine your visit with other Roppongi sightseeing spots.
