No idea if the trees are blooming again in the Prater – but who needs Vienna when you can have the Munich Olympic Park? The cherry trees there have just put on their pink blossoms, and the splendor will be on display for about three weeks. The cherry trees in the Olympic Park were planted as a reference to the Japanese city of Sapporo, in 1972, in the Munich Olympic year, host of the Winter Games – since then Sapporo has been Munich’s twin city, which is also represented there with trees: in 1976 a maypole was delivered to Japan, which has been there ever since is honored.
The Munich cherries can adjust to the slowly warming air; it should be up to 21 degrees on Saturday. After that, however, the rain comes again, which annoys people, but pleases the plants – so far it has been far too dry in 2022, not only cherry trees thirst for water, but all green. Therefore: It was granted to him.
