The Yanaka Cemetery in Tokyo is known as a historic site with a peaceful atmosphere, where prominent figures, including Yoshinobu Tokugawa, the last shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate, are laid to rest.
The Tokugawa family ruled Japan for over 250 years and shaped the history of Japan during the Edo period (1603-1868).
Yoshinobu's resignation marked the end of the samurai era and the beginning of Japan's modernization in the Meiji Restoration.
The beautiful cherry blossoms bloom in the spring, making it a popular spot for both history and nature lovers.
