::This place has everything that you need in a park. Except a place to through a barbecue. You can rent a hall through Essex County Parks and Recreation department for a reasonable price. You may still be able to fish here just as long as you have a permit through the county. There's basketball and a nice playground that gets updated very often right next to 280 and 7th ave. Rounds pool an recreation center is right across the street. The skating rink that seemingly only opens on weekends (even though the staff is always there). Father's day dads skate for free. Nonetheless, if your a runner, you can run either on the recreation fields (football/soccer, baseball) of of lake street. Or the paths throughout the park. The path between Bloomfield ave and Heller Parkway is the best(Forrest hills). They have 1/4mile markers and a path that's low impact on the joints. There are wildlife here besides birds and squirrels so show caution when passing through the really dense areas. The Heller parkway/Grafton section of the park has a tennis court. Further down is a the cherry blossom center, another playground, a running track, and another baseball park known as 4diamonds. Ultimately this is a peaceful park where u can enjoy the tradition of architecture throughout.

::Very clean and friendly. It is a big park with various types of areas, including working out/running, picnicking, many water areas, baseball fields, tennis courts, and a roller skating rink. The playgrounds in the Belleville area are my my favorite to take my little one. The Cherry blossoms are annual and definitely worth the trip! Check their website for holiday events; they sometimes have concert/fire works/ etc... Barbecuing is NOT allowed :/ hit the thumbs up button if this was helpful!

::If you are looking for cherry blossoms in the month of March April near Jersey city this is an absolute place to visit. It has amazing views. It's got tons of things for the kids too. They have a fishing pond where there are tons of fishes. Beautiful spacious and very modern playground for kids. Lots of open space to have the most amazing picnic with your family. Go get your family pictures taken here.

::Was here to attend the Essex County Cherry Blossom Festival. Though it was very cold/windy this time but the view of the cherry blossom trees made up for it. A well maintained park with ample parking , clean restrooms and lots of pink and white cherry blossom trees and plenty of spots to get your own moment/photos with them.. in some spots there were cherry blossom white and pink petals on the ground under the cherry blossom trees making it look like a blanket and giving it a fairy tale look and feel. Great alternate for those who cannot make it or want to avoid Washington DC trip for cherry blossom. You won't be disappointed.

::新澤西溪流公園，也叫櫻花🌸公園 占地360英亩，是全美樱花最多的公园。每年4月11到4月22会举办盛大的樱花节，走在全是樱花的街道上，街对面还有一个颇有气势的教堂，十分带感。园中因有汇入Passaic河的小溪，故名Branch Brook Park。每年三月中旬至四月中旬，公园樱花绽放的时候，樱花绵延数里，整座公园芳香扑鼻，放眼望去满坡遍野的花海，蔚为美丽壮观，吸引了来自美国东部各地游人前来赏樱花。许多游人在惊叹之余，干脆称溪流公园为樱花公园，却把它原先的名字给忘了。 这个公园的樱花相当美，相当迷人，都是很大株的那种。这里是美国樱花最多的地方。樱花盛开的时候，相当壮观。这些樱花是由该地区最早的犹太人从亚洲移植过来的。
