For the last couple of years, visitor numbers have been increasing month on month just about every month. If the trend continues, there will be more visitors in peach blossom season than we had in cherry blossom season, which in turn saw more visitors than plum blossom season. It's almost as though visitor numbers aren't materially affected by the blossom calendar.
Historically (pre-pandemic), there were as many visitors in July as in March or April.
