The idea behind cherry blossoms, also known as sakura, is that life can be seen as one circle. There is no ultimate end of anything, but only a new beginning. Therefore, they are also popular for symbolizing rebirth, renewal, and transformation.
Since they look very delicate and graceful, many women choose to tattoo them and express their feminine side. They hold great significance in Japanese culture but became popular all over the world for their beauty and deep meaning.
There are many designs you can choose from, and these 22 are definitely among the most beautiful ones!
1. Cherry Blossom Calf Tattoo
This design screams delicate and feminine! The baby pink color of cherry blossoms accentuates their beauty even more. The soft lines and subtle shading are also an important part of this design.
2. Cherry Blossom Sword Tattoo
I always thought that the combination of two opposites is really cool in any tattoo, like the power of the sword and the delicacy of these flowers here. Together they symbolize honor, loyalty, and grace.
3. Cherry Blossom And Koi Fish Tattoo
Cherry blossom and koi fish are a really cool concept together considering they’re both significant in Japanese culture. When combined together they represent the idea of perseverance and the power of transformation.
4. Black & Grey Cherry Blossom Tattoo
Most of the cherry blossom tattoos are pink, so having these flowers with black outlines and gray shading is definitely different. It’s really beautiful how the design extends from the chest down to the arm. Since the design is so beautiful it feels like it doesn’t lack color and is instead stunning just the way it is.
5. Dragon & Cherry Blossom Tattoo
Another very cool and bold concept is the dragon surrounded by pink cherry blossoms. Dragons are known to be powerful and strong, so when we add these delicate flowers to the design, the tattoo gets even more beautiful meaning. It speaks about the fierceness, passion, and fleeting nature of life.
6. Delicate Cherry Blossom Tattoo
Cherry blossoms are elegant just by themselves, but this design somehow makes them look even more delicate. It’s very simple, not too big, and truly beautiful. The placement is perfect for these kinds of tattoos.
7. Geometric Cherry Blossom Tattoo
Cherry blossoms are very meaningful, so when they’re combined with other meaningful symbols, they create a really stunning tattoo. This circle is a symbol of life and cherry blossoms represent the cyclical nature of life and the idea that every ending is just a new beginning of something else.
8. Purple Cherry Blossom Tattoo
Although cherry blossoms are known to be mostly pink and white, in the world of tattoos and art, we have the freedom to create whatever we want. So why not have purple cherry blossoms as well?
9. Cherry Blossom & Snake Tattoo
Snake and cherry blossoms actually have similar meanings considering they both symbolize renewal and rebirth. Here, a snake is gracefully intertwined with flowers making a beautiful forearm tattoo design.
10. Cherry Blossom With Script Tattoo
“The right time is always now” is actually a really good quote to combine with cherry blossoms. It’s because cherry blossoms have a very short blooming period which reminds us to appreciate the present and use every moment to the maximum.
11. Simple Cherry Blossom Tattoo
The beauty of this tattoo design lies in its simplicity. It’s pretty minimalistic which I’m sure all women who don’t like intricate designs will appreciate.
12. Crane & Cherry Blossom Tattoo
The crane in this tattoo is depicted in a truly stunning way! The combination of crane and cherry blossoms is linked to beauty, longevity, and transience of life.
13. Cherry Blossom Thigh Tattoo
If you’re searching for a perfect feminine thigh piece, this might be it! The colors are absolutely beautiful, and I love how the flowers are depicted a bit larger than usual which emphasizes their beauty.
14. Cherry Blossom Back Tattoo
Back tattoos are always super attractive on women! I really like it when the back tattoos are centered on the spine. The flowers are designed beautifully and the little dots were also a nice touch.
15. Full Arm Cherry Blossom Tattoo
If you like full-sleeve tattoo designs that don’t completely cover your arm, you’ll probably want something like this. The cherry blossoms are gracefully wrapped around the whole arm and look really feminine.
16. Cherry Blossom Ankle Tattoo
Ankle tattoos are super popular when it comes to women. They look really cute and pretty attractive, especially when you’re wearing heels. You can also easily hide it if you want or proudly show it off whenever you want.
17. Realistic Cherry Blossom Collarbone Tattoo
Realistic tattoos always amaze me because they look like true masterpieces. I’m sure that even a small tattoo like this one requires a lot of work when you want to make it look so realistic. The placement on the collarbone makes it even better!
18. Cherry Blossom Blackwork Tattoo
If you don’t really want something classic and similar to what others have, this might be perfect for you! Blackwork tattoos are unique and very creative. This one is probably a freehand tattoo because of the brushstroke that looks really natural, which only makes it more impressive.
19. Cherry Blossom & Butterflies Tattoo
You know what else goes really well with cherry blossoms? Butterflies! They symbolize transformation, rebirth, and renewal, which makes them a perfect symbol to combine with cherry blossoms.
20. Micro Cherry Blossom Tattoo
Micro tattoos are gaining more and more attention and taking over the tattoo world! And how wouldn’t they when they look so damn cute?! So, if you’re a fan of micro designs, consider getting something like this.

There’s just something about ribcage tattoos that makes them super feminine and attractive. Whatever tattoo you have on the side of the ribs, I’m sure it will look amazing! If something as delicate as cherry blossoms is tattooed there, just know it’ll make you look at least 5x more feminine!
22. Symmetrical Cherry Blossom Tattoo
This cherry blossom tattoo just below the collarbones adds an elegant touch, while the symmetry emphasizes balance and gives a sense of harmony. The vivid red color against the dark branches creates a perfect contrast that’s visually appealing and looks truly stunning!
