🌸It might surprise you that one of the best places in Richmond to see blooming cherry trees is in fact at a cemetery. But it’s not just any cemetery, it’s a historic beloved place by everyone who visits 

📌 Hollywood Cemetery 
📍 Richmond Virgina 
🔗 hollywoodcem 

Best Things to See
 1) President James Monroe’s Tomb & Presidents Circle is my fav place to see cherry trees blooming 

2) The Palmer Chapel Mausoleum - beautiful stain glass and opens up to beautiful views of the James River 

3) Overlook 3 shows off beautiful city & James River views and a bench to see and take it all in

4 The Iron Dog - one of the most well known monuments. It’s a cast iron Newfoundland dog that stands guard over a little girl who died in 1862. 

⭐️Another little tidbit is that the cemetery is a fantastic place to go walk.  There are tons of hills and you can really get a nice walk or jog while enjoying the history, views, and paying your respects. 

☀️ Best time to see them: Mid to late March. This does vary each year depending on the weather
