Close to the parking lot at the West Entrance of Queen Elizabeth Park is one of the best hanami spots in Vancouver to have a pick nick. There are several Yoshino Cherry trees including, what I consider to be Vancouver's most beautiful tree.

A Whitcomb Cherry with downtown and Grouse Mountain in the background. As with most Whitcomb trees this year, this tree bears a lot of damaged blossoms probably due to the cold weather in February and March.
