In our country where there are only two seasons, summer and rainy, most of us have to go out of the country in order to experience spring where flowers bloom their prettiest.
Some Asian countries such as Taiwan, Korea and Japan, the blooming of cherry blossoms is one of the most anticipated times of the year. Statistics also show that these countries experience their tourist peak during the season, proving the kind of attraction spring season gets.

Starbucks also embraces the changing of the seasons with new Springtime favorites inspired by Cherry Blossom.
