Wonderful Gardens to visit in Vancouver - Wonderful gardens, I visited on my own and despite being winter there was a lot to see including hummingbirds! Lots of sections and hidden areas to explore really exceeded expectations. Price was so cheap compared to UK gardens. I spent about 2.5 hours here.

Can’t Miss Botanical Gardens - The Gardens are just gorgeous with such a variety of foliage and flowers. The paths are easily navigated and not too difficult. Plenty of shade so you do not get too hot. One of my favorite areas was where they categorized plants by their uses. For example all the plants that could be grown and used in curry or to make fabric dye or put in your curry etc I took lots of photos and will add many of those plants to our herb garden in the spring. Well done again Canada!!
