Vancouver’s Dr. Sun Yat-sen Garden named world's best

Vancouver’s own Dr. Sun Yat-sen Garden was recently named been named No. 1 on a list of city gardens around the world in a new book from National Geographic.

Our small but beautiful garden is rated ahead of the Rodin Sculpture Garden in Paris! Only two other gardens in North America were rated, the Foster Botanical Garden in Hawaii and the Conservatory Garden in New York’s Central Park.

The classical Chinese garden was the first garden in the Ming Dynasty style created outside of China, and is located just a few minutes from our Vancouver office.

Dr Sun Yat-sen was a China revolutionary and political leader and often referred to as the Father of the Nation.  His impact on Chinese culture is noticeable all over the world as cities, parks, and streets throughout the world have been named after him.

Happy holidays!
