New this year, the National Cherry Blossom Festival said they are partnering with the Goosechase App for the inaugural Cherry Hunt - festival attendees can document their Cherry Picks journey for points and a chance to win prizes at local restaurants. It's obviously better to go on weekdays than weekends, as well.ĭepending on the weather, the blooms will stay past peak bloom, so you could come into town early the following week and still enjoy them. During peak bloom, every day will be crowded, but if you go at dawn or dusk, you can great pictures and there will be less of a crowd anyway. The best times to go are off-peak days and times. You'll want to wear comfortable shoes if you plan on walking around. Scooters and e-bikes must be parked in one of 19 designated areas around the National Mall.Īlso, the walk around the Tidal Basin is just over two miles.
Nine Capital Bikeshare stations are available within the National Mall to provide another transportation option. Handicapped parking is designated on West Basin Drive at the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial. Most of the street parking is parallel parking. Bring your sneakers and instead find a parking spot in one of the nearby neighborhoods and walk or rideshare over. While The Wharf is close, the parking garage gets filled quickly. If you decide to drive, you'll need to be smart about where you park. Uber and Lyft are also options to get there, as well as cabs. There are also plenty of scooter and bike shares. If you're staying close (or if you park close) you can just walk there. Metro is probably the easiest way to get down to the National Mall area and avoid traffic. There are plenty of ways to get to Washington, D.C.'s Tidal Basin. You could stay in nearby Arlington or Alexandria and then go into the city to enjoy the blooms. This 2.7-mile loop takes you through some of the park's memorials such as the Lincoln Memorial, Vietnam Veterans Memorial, and the Korean War Veterans Memorial, as well as some of the lesser-known places such as Constitution Gardens where the 56 Signers of the Declaration of Independence Memorial is located.Visitors don't have to stay in D.C.
