A local favorite since the Victorian era, spectacular Stanley Park is a mere ten-minute bus ride from downtown. Forest walks, beachside strolls, and a vibrant rose garden are among its natural attractions. Activities include a childrens water park, playgrounds, tennis courts, and a pitch-and-putt course. Located inside the park, the Vancouver Aquarium is world-renowned for its realistic walk-through exhibits based on scientific research projects. To the north of the park lies the iconic Lions Gate Bridge, designated a National Historic Site of Canada. Two Art Deco lion sculptures guard its entrance.
