Truly a must in April. With the most variety of cherry blossom and the more trees than Washington. More trees please around the lake
It is spacious with plenty to see. Each section of the park is relaxing and beautiful. Plenty of benches and trees for shade. I dare say you could go every day for a month and still not have seen it all. Happy exploring! .
Worked an event, never went inside but the event was organized.
Great family atmosphere. Just wish they had the bathrooms open
Frnds reunion had a nice time park was clean anfortunely bathroom were close but its because of covid 19.
The best part of growing up in Belleville was Branch Brook Park & its annual Cherry Blossom Festival. With events from its 10k run, bike tour, cell phone tour & Japanese cultured demonstrations, the park displays a variety of over 5,000 cherry blossoms-- making it the #1 in the U.S. Truly, its a great place to go alone for peace or being your family for a fun day of adventure!
Its a park. Go enjoy so outdoors!
Picked a shady spot underneath a tree....put a blanket down and enjoyed the breeze...love coming out in the fresh air.
Quiet, cozy and a nice first date atmosphere.
Amazing!! Must go when they are in peak bloom. Totally worth it despite the crowd.
Was beautiful and peaceful. Had a nice walk.
Its a huge park. Lots of space to walk and enjoy the cherry blossoms. Just make sure you check on their website if they are blooming or not.I missed the event by 1 week.
Great weather to stroll around.. good place
I truly appreciate the beauty of the cherry blossoms in Bloom.
Took my granddaughter and she loved it.
Power a bigger collection of cherry blossoms in Washington DC
The largest Grove of ornamental cherry trees in North America along a meandering Creek. Breathtaking display for several weeks.
The Cherry Blossom Center at branch Brook Park is huge it’s in the northern most part of the park near Belleville on the border of Newark it’s a very pretty area you could the Cherryblossom’s especially in the spring in very late winter or very nice and it’s a great welcoming to spring my overall experience at the Cherry Blossom center is very good five star is highly recommended
It is a really welcoming place. Totally worth a visit this time of the year.
Its awesome place to spend a day during summer. Plenty of cherry blossom trees gives pleasent view during spring. But be prepared for parking hassles during summer. Good place to spend a day with family.
It really is wonderful and AMAZING! Good place to visit with family and kids. the flowers are so beautiful. If there is a day that is less sunny I suggest you go that day. You wont get any photos without someone walking through them. the flowers create some of the most amazing photos.A must see if you really like Cherry Blossoms Everywhere. !!
As quiet you are going to get in Newark.
Been going there since i was kid.. memories ️️️
Most Cherry Blossom Trees in the US. Gorgeous!
Just needed to breath and be at peace
It is always a pleasure to walk around there.
Beautiful cherry blossom trees of que a few different varietals, parking available.
Beautiful park and lost of space to explore.
It is just exquisite. I hadnt been since I was a little girl and it brought back beautiful memories as well as creating new ones. Mother Earth is so beautiful and compassionate. It fills you with such appreciation
We visited yesterday on last day of Cherry Blossom festival and were amazed by natures beauty. It was cloudy, but the beauty of cherry trees were at its peak. The park is huge and the kids had a great time. It was very crowded and finding a parking spot was fun! but totally worth the visit.
A sole relaxing and beautiful. Well kept and clean.
Everything was so beautiful..
Great place to hang out with friends
Its a huge park, the welcome center is very nice. Bathrooms are very clean. Its beautiful both inside and outside. Love that it has a walking trail.
I walk and bike here everyday. During the off seasons its obviously not AS pretty as cherry blossom season, but the staff do a great job with keeping it clean for its visitors. The cherry blossom season is VERY busy. People will be taking all kinds of photos. Im really excited because this year I wont need to drive there. The parking gets pretty hectic during the season so be aware.
Nice place! Best part was free parking that I liked the most. For Family picnic time and for kids there is big play ground.
Pretty nice cherry blossom interest point. Its a road with lots of cherry trees along the two sides. Try to drive deep and you will find lots of surprises.
The best park in New Jersey
Love this park. Was riding and decided to stop by.
Beautiful place to exercise or walk. You may see a deer or two, but harmless. I love the atmosphere.
It was a cold windy day. We walked around mindlessly, but ended up with some great pictures. We got some graffiti pictures and baby girl played on the playground. Next time we go we will take the tour bus.
Beautiful and peaceful place
Beautiful to see. Great place to go when in season
My favorite Park Im running every day.., Beautiful special in spring.
Family oriented
Nice ro see the cherry blossoms..no drama but sooooo many people, vendors and fresh air.
Soon many beautiful trees in blossom. Loads of big fat Honey Bees this year.
I walk at this Park every day.
Beautiful and quite place to be
Nice area
Great view
A beautiful scene and atmosphere to witness and walk through.
The Cherry Blossoms this weekend was one the best I have experienced. The weather was perfect and the pollen count was at a bare minimum. The flowers on most of the trees were blooming and great for taking pictures. What I also like is the diversity of people thats becoming more broader as the years progress. If you want to take your family friends, date or just have a nice outing alone or take a nice walk this park is perfect.
Great turn out. Nice event for all ages. My nephew had fun.
I go every year to the Cherry Blossom Festival. I love the entertainment and the food.
It was a great experience. The trees were beautiful. I took plenty of pictures.
This place is so amazing! It is filled with so many cherry blossom trees. A breath of fresh air and a good place to unwind with family and friends. There is a playground for kids to play on, sports amenities and picnic tables to dine. A great way to welcome spring and the sun! Sakura!
