Additional Information Image was scanned from color slide. Note: Yoshino (Yoshino-chō) is a town located in Yoshino District, Nara Prefecture, Japan. It is the starting point for a pilgrimage trail up Mount Yoshino to a shrine. Mount Yoshino is famous for its many thousands of sakura (cherry) trees. These flowering specimen trees were planted in four groves at different altitudes, in part so that the famed trees would come into bloom at different times of the spring.--Wikipedia.
