San Francisco Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival



The blooming cherry blossoms in San Francisco's Japantown marks the beginning of the Cherry Blossom Festival. "The Cherry Blossom Festival in San Francisco started as a community event in specific reaction to the redevelopment of Japantown in the 1960s. Traditional Japanese arts are showcased with demonstrations of martial arts, dancing, fashion, tea ceremonies and bonsai exhibits. There are also Asian food kiosks and Asian oriented street vendor booths like Kanji calligraphy scrolls, Japanese art and flowers. Link
