‘Tis the season. The time when Cherry Blossoms, also known as Sakura or Japanese Cherry bloom in full glory turning our very own Shillong into a pink city.

Well, if you’re fortunate enough to be in the city around this time, you would be able to witness this pretty beauty of nature. But if you’re sitting at home cribbing why didn’t you plan a vacation there, then fret not. You can easily see the pretty flowers take over Norther India via social media.
Come November and #Shillong glows in its full glory!
It is that time of the year when the Cherry Blossoms adorn Meghalaya, and locals and tourists can't get enough of this beauty!

Several people took to Twitter to share mesmerizing visuals as Sakura blooms in Meghalaya.
The notion is called wabi-sabi life, like the cherry blossom, it is beautiful because of its impermanence, not in spite of it, more exquisite for the inevitability of loss.” – Peggy Orenstein#cherryblossom #Meghalaya #Shillong#MissingHome #IMOW pic.twitter.com/IM5KNynuKl

You don’t have to burn a hole in your pockets to visit Japan and see Sakura in its full glory. The flower also blooms in East Asia in the months of October and November in states like Sikkim, Nagaland, Uttarakhand, and Jammu and Kashmir. It’s indeed a sight to behold.
