Queen Elizabeth Park

by rmdw - last update: Aug 16, 2003

Japanese garden and bridge above waterfall
Queen Elizabeth Park (also known as 'Little Mountain' to us locals) is a large diverse park in the center of Vancouver. For more information click here.

Most tourists spend less than 2 hours here but if you have the time walk it's entire Northern and Western expanse and you will find some beautiful scenes of nature; often used by wedding photographers!
Sunken gardens
These are the beautiful sunken gardens, which is the centerpiece of QE Park. Originally this was an old quarry, used to build Vancouver.
Flowers are absolutely everywhere. They're changed thoughout the year to reflect the season.
Yellow flowers
Orange flowers
I'd recommend accessing the park from 33rd & Cambie.

 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!
