VANCOUVER – The pristine beauty Stanley Park on the edge of an ocean makes it truly a wonder of nature and now a major travel website says it is the best park in the world.
TripAdvisor.com has released its list of the top landmarks and parks in the world and the 405-hectare public park, bordered by the world-renowned seawall, tops the list.
Stanley Park is the only Canadian park on the list. Central Park in New York City was ranked third on the list of world parks, reported CTV.
Vancouver’s Stanley Park has been named the best park in the world in a survey by travel website TripAdvisor.
