ハナミズキの花と思いましたが、花弁の先が尖っているので、これはヤマボウシです。花弁は普通4枚ですが、これには5枚あります。
花弁と書きましたが、正確には花弁ではなく、葉が変化した苞と呼ばれるものです。
At first, I thought it was a dogwood flower, but when I saw that the petals had pointed tips, I realised it was a Cornus kousa. Typically, the flower has four petals, but this one has five.
I wrote "petals", but they are not actually petals. They are "bracts". These are modified leaves.
