Spectacular cherry blossoms draw crowds to High Park in Toronto

The cherry blossoms in High Park have brought stunning hues of pink to the busy outdoor space in Toronto, and, like every year, the crowds have followed suit.

Full bloom began for some trees in High Park on April 28, and visitors have a narrow window to enjoy the annual spectacle before the pastel petals fall to the ground for another year.

Despite cold weather slowing progress on some trees, the cherry blossoms have generated crowds in and around High Park this week, as the masses flock to witness the fleeting display.
