Reviewed By ALSVFE - Regina, Canada

There is not very many historic buildings in Regina, but Government House is definitely one of them. The building was restored and preserved as it was 1900s. They have afternoon Victorian tea party once a month, which is worth visiting. However you need to register for it in advance.

Regina, our former home for decades, was a city we were proud to take many visiting family members to see the famous Dinosaur and many exceptional wildlife scenes (back in the days when it was the Museum of Natural History.) This icon has the well-deserved reputation of being one of the very best internationally. If you're in the Queen City, be sure to stop in and be amazed!

Immediately after we arrived at the hotel we booked in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada post ~8 hours driving started from Fargo, ND, USA, the first thing that family wanted to do was to visit this park. It was around 4:00pm in the afternoon of a sunny day at the end of July 2018. When we drove to park, we found that the park was built around the famous and beautiful Wascana Lake - a Park in the heart or center of the Regina City, like but bigger than the Center Park in New York City. There are several small islands in the lake with only one named “Pine Island” that we could freely walked into. From there you can see some people are boating or kayaking while birds like sea gulls and several swans are playing or maybe looking for food in the lake water. While we drove along the beach road to a place - should be at the Northwest corner, we were deeply attracted by the beauty of the flowers in a garden. So we parked our car and enjoyed the variety of the beautiful flowers inside the garden - Queen Elizabeth Garden that is in front of the Saskatchewan Provincial Legislative Building. Between the Building and the Garden, you can see the sculpture of Queen Elizabeth riding on a horse while on the other end of the Garden that is close to the lake you can see the sculpture of the most famous politician of Saskatchewan, Walters Scott, who was the founder of both Saskatchewan and Alberta provinces of Canada. Among all the beautiful views of the Park left in our brains, the unique beauty of the so many types of flowers in the Garden, are the most magnificent and unforgettable.

Legislative Building

Reviewed By LateTravelers

We arrived in time for the 10am tour. No backpacks are allowed and there is security scanning before proceeding. Our tour guide, a young man that I can’t remember his name, did an excellent job and was very knowledgeable. Tour took about 40 minutes and gave a fair bit of history of Canada that I wasn’t up to date with. Magnificent building.
