Travel Guide: Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D.C.
Spring is in the air?and so is the scent of cherry blossoms as they bloom across Washington, D.C.! The three-week-long National Cherry Blossom Festival celebrates the truly remarkable occasion, and is filled with events that honor the relationship between the U.S. and Japan (the trees were a gift from Yukio Ozaki, the mayor of Tokyo, in 1912). People flock to the nation?s capital to see all the peachy posies and marvel at the sea of pink and white. Curious as to when the peak bloom date is" The National Park Service defines that as the day when 70 percent of the trees surrounding the Tidal Basin have opened their buds…and they’ve got all the updates on this ‘Bloom Watch’ page.
