9 traditional and authentic Airbnb stays in Japan for less than $33

The sight of soft pink buds nestled in between green leaves is one of the reasons Malaysians love Japan during spring. It's amazing how a single tree alone could become a main attraction for tourists but it is definitely a novelty to be able to see them up close and take pictures of, and with it.

With a myriad of deals during this time of the year for vacations to Japan, it is only wise to be travelling during the season which brings forth the blossoms.
