Journeys in Japan: 4x19
Peach Trees and Rural Retreat Kofu Basin
The Kofu Basin, in Yamanashi Prefecture, lies north of Mt. Fuji. In mid-April, when peach flowers blossom, the landscape becomes a carpet of pink. On this edition of “Journeys in Japan,” German national Lana Bergmann, who is studying film, visits Kofu when the peach flowers are in full bloom.
