The 20 Most Beautiful Spring Destinations You Should Visit

WASHINGTON, D.C.

The “nation’s greatest springtime celebration” is in the country’s capital. The tradition started in 1912 when the mayor of Tokyo gave 3,000 cherry trees to the U.S. as a sign of friendship. Some of the favorite events during the event are the Blossom Kite Festival (March 31) and the parade down Constitution Avenue, which also happens to be one of the largest displays in the country.
