Stanley Park is recognized around the globe as one of the great parks of the world! Vancouver's first park and one of the city's main tourist attractions, Stanley Park is an evergreen oasis of 400 hectares close to the downtown core.
An 8.8 kilometre seawall path circles the park, which is used by million of pedestrians, cyclists, and inline skaters every year. Much of the park remains forested with an estimated half million trees hundreds of years old. There are approximately 200 km of trails and roads in the park.
A cluster of 19th century totem poles, the symbol of Western Canada, can be seen in Stlanley Park.
