The journey begins in the East Bed, stepping through two large torii gates. The East Bed features a row of cherry blossoms, which represents the beauty and brevity of life. Moving to the North Bed, two beautiful red-crowned Japanese cranes.
These are designed after the famous Japanese painting, 100 Fountain Views of Edo-Hiroshige Cranes 1857. The highlight of the spring display is waiting on the West Bed.
Here, a towering replica of the Osaka Castle. The Osaka Castle is one of the most iconic and historic castles in all of Japan. This display will remain in the Bellagio Conservatory through June 15, 2019.
