Queen's Park, Toronto, Urban park in Downtown Toronto, Canada
Queen's Park spans 20 hectares of green space in Toronto's center, featuring tree-lined paths, gardens, and the Ontario Legislative Building at its southern section.
The park opened in 1860 when Edward, Prince of Wales, dedicated this land as Canada's first municipal park, naming it after Queen Victoria.
The park contains numerous monuments and memorials that commemorate Canadian historical figures, military service members, and significant national events.
Visitors can access the park through multiple public transportation options, including subway service at Queen's Park station and several bus routes.
The term Queen's Park functions as a metonym for Ontario's government, similar to how Capitol Hill represents American federal legislature.
