This garden hosts an annual Cherry Blossom Festival in late April/early May. Considering how big the Japanese gardens are here and how beautiful the cherry blossom trees are when they are blooming. I don't have to go to Japan to see Sakura Festival, I can see it in the heart of New York City. Such a lovely place to visit with your loved one, isn't it?
