Agreed. Classic case of the “Thing vs Thing, Japan” meme

Hahaha! I'm from Japan, but I totally agree. Honestly, I often find other cultures even more charming in many ways.

The unfamiliar usually is, especially when you aren’t there to experience the less obvious negative aspects of a given culture.

Outside of Japan, Japanese culture often gets put on a pedestal but it of course isn’t without its own issues that aren’t apparent to outsiders viewing from a distance.

They are just Japanese cherry blossom in Poland anyways.

Many trees of the same family are also stunning in bloom but the Japanese cherry blossom is celebrated not only for its beauty, but also for the fleeting nature of it.

I'm not sure how that translates as the tree is moved to a different climate where it doesn't belong.
