Situated in the heart of Vancouver’s historic Chinatown, Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden is a site of cultural heritage, learning, and reflection.

Stunning architecture, winding paths and corridors, blooming plants and serene jade water ponds transport our visitors back to an ancient time and place.
