What are the festivals to look out for in Washington DC that are not religious in nature
A 2-week festival called the Cherry Blossom Festival is held in March-April every year, when the cherry trees in the Tidal Basin begin to bloom. It's the announcement of spring for Washington City.
These Japanese cherry blossom trees were a gift from the nation of Japan. Many people flock to see the breathtaking sight of the cherry trees in full bloom in the spring time. To see pictures of these gorgeous trees log on to:
