Wascana Centre, Urban park in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada
The Wascana Centre spans 930 hectares around Wascana Lake, featuring walking trails, gardens, monuments, and recreational facilities throughout the landscaped grounds.
The park started in 1908 with Thomas Mawson's design, transforming from a water reservoir for the railway into a central recreational space for Regina.
The Saskatchewan Legislative Building, Royal Saskatchewan Museum, and MacKenzie Art Gallery form cultural landmarks within the park's boundaries.
Visitors can rent canoes, kayaks, and paddleboards during summer months, while winter activities include skating and cross-country skiing on the frozen lake.
The Wascana Lake underwent an extensive deepening project in 2004, known as the Big Dig, requiring $18 million to enhance water quality and recreational opportunities.
