Van Dusen Gardens

by rmdw - last update: Jul 4, 2004

Van Dusen Gardens - Main Fountain
The Van Dusen Gardens provide a wonderful tribute to nature in the middle of Vancouver. For more information about the gardens take a look here.

This is the main fountain just inside the garden grounds. Catching the rainbow was just good luck!
Closeup of Main Fountain
Just had to get a close-up of that rainbow!
I think I'll let this one speak for itself, other than to say, "Gorgeous, Baby, Gorgeous!"
Central Pond
Weeping Willow Trees
I find weeping willow trees to be amongst the most serene on this planet.
Hard to believe this place used to be an old golf course!
Main Pond
Water near main entrance
This is a large pool close to the main entrance.
Tried to do something artistic with the sun rays. Very close to the previous weeping willows shot. Just across the water a movie crew was filming.
Weeping Willows
Map of Van Dusen Gardens
This is a map of the entire Van Dusen Gardens property. It's a big place that has a lot of diverse areas to show off!

 I really enjoyed the political quiz you recommended. My scores were -5.0 and -0.92, similar to Mandela and the Dalai Lama! What does that mean?!?

 Hey, Robert...it was nice to meet you and your Mom at the Ft.Worth vt meet. Sometime before the end of the year we hope to see some of Vancouver--as I was researching it, your page came up...I guess we'll be coming from Seattle. Can't wait!
