Beautiful time of year during cherry blossom season! Loved going with my friend to visit in the early Spring. I would love to do that again. Although there are a lot of people come to see the cherry blossoms , there is still some incredible views around. My favorite part of being in this area is seeing the people enjoy the beauty of God’s nature and being right next to the water of the Potomac. Definitely a highlight of living in DC!

Went because we thought it was really funny that it's just a single lantern. Actually going to see it, though, shows a board with a really cute story of international friendship between influential figures from Japan and the US. It's definitely prettier during cherry blossom season, and the space is very quiet and peaceful compared to the surrounding landmarks. It's by the water, so watch out for goose poop when you walk!

Title: A Blossoming Tribute to Friendship: The Japanese Lantern at Tidal Basin

Review:

On a sun-drenched day, I had the pleasure of visiting the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C., where the Japanese Lantern is a silent witness to the enduring friendship between the United States and Japan. Surrounded by the delicate pink and white cherry blossoms, the Lantern offered a serene and picturesque backdrop.

The gift of the cherry trees to the USA in 1912 and the installation of the Lantern in 1954 are significant milestones that highlight the deep-rooted cultural exchange between the two nations. As I meandered around the Lantern, I was captivated by its historical significance and tranquility amidst the bustling crowd.

It was a privilege to capture the peak bloom of the cherry blossoms, framing the Lantern in a natural tapestry of color and beauty. This visit to the Japanese Lantern at the Tidal Basin was a memorable experience, a reminder of the beauty that can arise from international friendship and...
