Have you ever wondered how so many trees just decided to bloom in one area and create so much beauty that we can’t comprehend it? The trees didn’t only grow there; they were a gift from the mayor of Tokyo in 1912 to the United States. He gifted the United States with approximately 3000 Cherry Blossom tree, and that’s why we have the Blossom Festival every year to commemorate this wonderful gift that was given to the United States.

The flowering period of Cherry Blossoms lasts about fourteen days. The best time to view these beautiful trees is about four days after the flowering period has begun.
