Queen Elizabeth Park

Queen Elizabeth Park, Municipal park in Vancouver, Canada.

Queen Elizabeth Park covers 130 acres atop Little Mountain, about 125 metres above sea level. Its centre is a broad lawn bordered by irregular beds of shrubs and trees, with reddish and purple-leaved plantings among the green. A small pond edged by rocks and low plants lies in the foreground, and paved paths run along the lawn's perimeter.

The site started as basalt quarries supplying road materials before King George VI dedicated it as a public space in 1939. The reshaped quarry floors were planted and developed into the present gardens from the 1960s onward.

The park's Chinese name, 女皇公園 ("Empress Park"), is a mistranslation of Queen Elizabeth that has stuck. The 1939 dedication by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth gave the grounds their English name. Today the quarry gardens, arboretum and conservatory host joggers, tai chi groups and lawn bowlers.

The grounds are accessible during daylight hours and suitable for walks across different levels. The paths are mostly paved, but some steep sections may challenge wheelchairs or strollers.

Inside the Bloedel Conservatory, a geodesic dome at the highest point, over 200 exotic birds fly freely among tropical plants. The dome also provides a circular view over the city and surrounding mountains.
