Spring Blooming Cherry Blossom Trees Village Hall Scone Perth Perthshire Scotland

Tour Scotland 4K Spring travel video of Cherry Blossom trees in bloom by the village hall on Abbey Road on visit to Scone by Perth, Perthshire. The cherry blossoms and the leaves are edible and used in many traditional Japanese sweets and tea. They are first pickled and then used in recipes for mochi cakes, candies, and even cookies. You can also brew sakura blossom tea or make cocktails with preserved blossoms. The trees are a symbol of spring because it is a time of renewal. However, because the blooms are short lived, they are also symbolic of the fleeting nature of life.
