Maps

Cherry Blossom Viewing is a cool new sport in Metro Vancouver. This year Team Sakura has done an extraordinary job researching more than 50 park locations in Vancouver where you can appreciate and celebrate the blossoming of our cherry trees with a picnic. As our 43 different cultivars of cherry tree come into bloom in every one of our 23 neighborhoods they light up  the city, painting Vancouver awash of pinks; from a blush to a riot of pinks to pure snow white cherry blossoms.

Choose your perfect spot on our special edition 2010 Cherry Blossom Viewing Map to host your hanami (flower viewing party in Japanese) picnic and don’t forget your tarp!

Look below the map for the list of featured parks. On the map, you'll find these parks and the festival's favourite cherry viewing locations.

Check the Festival Favourites page to find out which cultivars are in bloom right now, with photos and links to Cherry Scouts' descriptions of what you'll see.
