In less than a month, the number of confirmed diagnoses in the United States has risen to more than 100,000. And that number is still rising.
Affected by the coronavirus, the annual "Cherry Blossom Festival" in Washington, had to end early. In order to avoid the spread of the coronavirus caused by the dense cherry blossom viewing crowd, Washington Mayor Bowser ordered the closure of all roads in Washington's popular cherry blossom viewing area, Tidal Lake.

Although many people will not be able to watch the scene this year, in order to let everyone feel the vitality brought by the cherry blossoms without leaving home, we have turned on the "cloud cherry blossom viewing" mode. Let's enjoy the beauty together.

In 1912, Yukio Ozaki of Tokyo, Japan presented 6,000 cherry blossoms to the United States when he visited the United States, of which 3,000 were in New York and 3,000 were in Washington. These cherry trees are all over a hundred years old.
The flowering period of cherry blossoms is very short, usually only about two weeks.

Hope the epidemic will pass as soon as possible, and we can enjoy our spring break.
