They were a gift from Mayor Yukio Ozaki of Tokyo City to the city of Washington, D.C. celebrating the growing friendship between the U.S. and Japan. U.S. First Lady Helen Herron Taft and Viscountess Chinda, wife of the Japanese ambassador, planted the first two of these trees on the north bank of the Tidal Basin in West Potomac Park. These two trees still stand.

Trees are more than amazing because aside from the fact that they produce oxygen through the process of photosynthesis, they also give us a cozy feeling. Just like what cherry trees show to us. *North America's Largest Recorded Earthquake* Date in History: March 27, 1964 A quake measuring 9.2 on the Richter scale hits near Prince William Sound, Alaska destroying property and causing about 139 deaths.
