Description:

In 1912, an incredible gift of 3,000 cherry blossom trees was bestowed on Washington, DC by Tokyo, Japan. The trees have withstood the test of time and nearly a century later, the National Cherry Blossom Festival is preparing for a five-week spectacular. Events will include a star-studded Opening Ceremony; a parade featuring lavish floats; a kite festival and fireworks festival; a Japanese street festival; and much more.
