After few weeks of consideration, I decided to use Sakura Matsuri (Cherry Blossom Festival) as the theme of my Festival Wallpaper Assignment. Yet, I will set Borneo International Kite Festival as my second piece of my assignment if time allows me to do so.
The History of the National Cherry Blossom Festival
The National Cherry Blossom Festival is the biggest annual event in the Nation's Capital, Washington, D.C. It takes place every year to celebrate the beginning of spring and has grown into one of America's premier celebrations of the springtime season.
The Festival commemorates the March 27, 1912 event where the nation of Japan gifted the United States with 3,000 cherry trees. On that day Tokyo mayor Yukio Ozaki donated the trees for the purpose of enhancing the budding friendship between his nation and America. Today, nearly 100 years later, The leaders of the world's two largest economies use the Festival as a way of recognizing the continued spirit of friendship between the U.S. and Japan.
The Cherry Blossoms tend to bloom between March 28 - April 12. Every April along the Tidal Basin that nearly surrounds the Jefferson Memorial millions of people from around the world walk along a pathway that glows with an unmistakable pink hue. The sea of pink is a photographer's paradise and best of all its COMPLETELY FREE. The festival, which lasts two weeks, is opened with a ceremony that is usually attended by the First Lady of the United States and the Japanese Ambassador to the United States.
