The events are virtual because of the pandemic

It is always a special time when spring arrives and the cherry blossoms bloom in Washington, D.C. around and near the Tidal Basin. The beautiful flowering trees are a sight to behold in various places throughout the entire city.

One other area where the cherry trees are prominent in the nation’s capital is at the National Japanese American Memorial to Patriotism. The memorial is a tribute to the loyal and patriotic Americans of Japanese descent who served in the U.S. military during World War II. It also commemorates the ten American concentration camps where American citizens and immigrants of Japanese heritage were unjustly incarcerated during the war years.
