Each March, Macon becomes a pink, cotton-spun

paradise as over 350,000 Yoshino cherry trees bloom

in all their glory. Festival lovers are treated to one of the

most extravagant displays of color in the nation as they

visit the cherry blossom capital of the world. We will

take a guided tour of the Cannonball House, named for

damage sustained during the Civil War. It is an example of

Greek Revival architecture, featuring period furniture and

an English garden. Its rich history includes the Adelphean

Collection, a Civil War and General Museum, and more.
