The Cherry
Blossom Festival
If you book this trip at a good time, you might get lucky and get to
visit the national cherry blossom festival which marks the celebration of the
3,000 cherry trees that was gifted to the city of Washington by the Mayor of
Tokyo. These trees arrived in Washington in 1912, and since then every spring,
the city celebrates the national cherry blossom festival.
This festival includes elaborate celebrations packed with numerous
balloons, parades and musical marching bands from various parts of the world
participating. This festival is a onetime event which portrays the friendship
of Tokyo and USA many years ago.
The Cherry
Blossom Bus Tour leaves from New York and takes you straight
to the independence hall. This hall is where George Washington was appointed as
the commander in chief. After this, you'll be taken to visit Liberty bell which
is a revolutionary place for USA. This bell marks the independence for USA. The
independence hall is the place where the first declaration of independence was
adopted and hence is marked as a world heritage site. The trip later takes you
to the Jefferson Memorial building, which is a tribute to the father of the
nation. This building was built and complete in 1943 and later got a bronze
statue of Jefferson added in 1947. This building has some of the most exquisite
architecture you'll ever witness. Day one of this trip also includes a visit to
the Lincoln Memorial which is shaped like a Greek temple. The last stop on day
one is the White house which is the official home to the US president. The
first president to live here was John Adams back in 1800.
Day two of the cherry blossom bus tour begins with a guided tour on foot
inside the Capitol building. The Capitol building was designed by Jenkins Hill
as a legislative building; however the outcome of this creation was so grand
that it was used as the president’s home. This building was partially damaged
during the war in 1812, but the place was reconstructed and its beauty still
remains. This tour also takes you to the president wax museum and the national
air and space museum before you finally head home.
So, if you’ve always wanted to get a sense of historical richness and
energy, then take the cherry blossom tour today.
