Can anyone advise the best places to see cherry blossoms in Beijing at the end of Mar ? I have heard of a place called Yuyuantang park - is this the right/best place ?

Chinese call Cherry blossom as YU Lan flower. Yes, Yu Yuantan park is a good place to see YU Lan flower. But it will be many many people at that time.
