Bowring Park, Urban park in St. John's, Canada.
The park extends over 200 acres with gardens, walking trails, duck ponds, and recreational areas along the Waterford Valley.
Sir Edgar Rennie Bowring donated the land to St. John's in 1911 to mark Bowring Brothers Ltd's 100th year of operations in Newfoundland.
The park features bronze statues including the Fighting Newfoundlander and a Caribou sculpture that mirrors the monument at Beaumont-Hamel Newfoundland Memorial.
Visitors can access tennis courts, swimming pools, and playgrounds at 305 Waterford Bridge Road with no entrance fees throughout the year.
A bronze Peter Pan statue stands in memory of Betty Munn, Sir Edgar Bowring's goddaughter, who perished in a maritime incident.
