Tips from locals
This is a nice smaller shrine off the beaten track in a peaceful neighborhood, known for its many different kinds of cherry trees. (very busy of course during blossom season)
Kyoto's best 'Ohanami' Sakura Cherry Blossom viewing spot that has many food booths and even BBQ rentals under the cherry blossoms. Bloom usually occurs between 3/20-4/20.
(Free admission) One of Kyoto's most famous hanami spots, Hirano Shrine is also known for the many varieties of cherry trees found on its grounds. Source: japan-guide
