It was my first visit to cherry blossom festival or SAKURA....Since childhood i have been fascinated with the serenity and freshness of this flower.I have always seen them in story books, on the pictures of soaps, perfumes or body moisturisers .This year during our stay in The Netherlands, I visited a nearby man-made forest, AMSTERDAM BOS where the festival of Sakura or arrival of spring is celebrated.People from all over gather there with food ,sit under the tress and relish the leisure with family and friends...
