Is the congressional cemetery open on weekends? Are the cherry blossoms blooming there at the moment?

Thank you!

It really is not.
It’s open if you have a dog and a dog pass, but you can’t just show up and walk through there.
I’ve grown to find that place really annoying, I would love to walk around in there and you can’t.
I got tossed out one day last year when it was snowing hard, and people were all in there walking their dogs and whatnot, so I just strolled in only to be confronted by a security guard.

Not quite sure what you’re talking about. I live near the cemetery and walk around without a dog all the time

I have lived near there for years and every time I try to go into the main gate they ask me for a pass. How do you get in?
I would guess I’ve attempted this 5-7 times and never been allowed in, so I gave up.

That’s so weird, I literally just walk in. Are you trying to go in with a dog? Because if you’re not a member of their K9 corps they require a $10 day pass

No! I don't have a dog; they told me I couldn't go in without one. My wife had the same experience twice and gave up.
