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.

I love going here in the winter months as it gives you an escape from the cold and snow. Great for elderly people. The volunteers at the front desk are exceptional.
