13132520. Fear of the Coronavirus didnt stop the Japanese taking part in

Fear of the Coronavirus didnt stop the Japanese taking part in their annual cherry blossom viewing. Armed with face masks the crowds turned out as usual to photograph the blooming trees in Tokyos Shinjuku Gyoen National Park in Shinjuku in Japan. There were restrictions on the usual organised picnics, and the crowds may have been thinner than last year, but that didnt stop people enjoying the blooms and setting up a few makeshift picnics, albeit with a bit more space between the groups than usual.
