Comment: I just saw the picture of tulip on the newspaper and it was so beautiful like a fairy tale...everywhere covered by red, yellow, white, and pink. In my country they also have this kind of festival but most of it located at the northern part of Thailand but for Japan I think most of the whole country they have arranged this kind of event for people, and that's good for family to have time together on holidays, moreover, when you see the flowers it light up you blue day very well.
