What is the Cherry Blossom Festival?

Question:




Answer:


The Cherry Blossom Festival (Party) is an event that takes place throughout Japan when the Cherry blossoms open in spring. Basically it is celebrated by going to have a picnic beneath the trees. People eat food and drink beneath the pink blossoms almost anywhere where there are cherry trees and a space to sit down. This goes on for about a week until the blossoms fall. In bigger parks, huge groups of people together will put down blue tarpaulins, sit down and have a bbq / party.
