See this amazing world within, hidden from the outside troubles and turmoil. Find this little place, as the reward itself is a peaceful escape for the mind and soul.
This little world, is within the Kobe Terrace Park of Seattle’s International District. All its cherry trees, are aside concrete pathways, zig-zagged upon a hillside. The time is often quiet, if one can exclude the noisy rumble of the nearby freeway and downtown city highlife. Then but infrequent, the light rain accelerates the petals of the cherry blossom trees to fall. When under the dense cover of these trees, one can focus on the gentle sound of the raindrops. And with increased rainfall, more white petals fall in very slow and graceful descent.
The result, is wonderous.

Thanks for the info!
Love this park, even when the trees aren’t in bloom 🙂
You sure are finding Seattle’s wonderful hidden spaces and places!
Sometimes, I think they find me. I just walk around a lot, and the sights just capture my attention
I thought of you today when drifting blossoms stuck to my car – in the grocery store parking lot!
Ahh, Seattle problems lol.
And speaking of blossoms, how about this: http://emotikin.com/2015/03/08/celebrating-spring-with-izzy/
