Shillong Is Back With The Fourth Edition Of The Cherry Blossom Festival 2019
Have you lusted away at pictures of your friends making the most of cherry blossom season on their trips to Japan and Paris? Well, you aren’t alone. Seeing the pink and white blossoms in full bloom is quite a breathtaking sight. The allure of it lies in the fact that the flowers are seasonal and we are graced by their presence only once a year. But does it really make sense to travel all the way to Japan to catch the sakura during the season? It will definitely burn a hole in your pocket but it is definitely worth it. However, if you can’t make yourself travel across the globe then we have a fairly great alternative for you. Closer home, the city of Shillong finds itself shrouded in a blanket of pink blossoms every year in November. That’s right, India has its own cherry blossoms! There’s more though. Every year, the city hosts the India International Cherry Blossom Festival.

Starting from the 13th of November to the 16th of November, Shillong will play host to India’s very own Cherry Blossom Festival. This is the fourth edition of the festival since its inception. It’s a time of celebration as the city revels in the trees are abloom. From what we hear, the trees are already beginning to flower and the entire valley will be full of it by the beginning of the festival. Coming to what the festival entails, prepare to drown yourself in goof music and perfectly cooked barbecue. That’s right, you can have as much delicious Korean Barbecue as your stomach can handle. Add to that music shows, beauty pageants and traditional dance and music performances and you have full-fledged rager.
