- Dawn-Luv C5 contributionsBeautiful Oasis of Tranquility in centre of downtown business.This is NOT to be missed when visiting downtown Kelowna. It's heaven to simply sit and enjoy the greenery while I"m eating lunch or enjoying a coffee. It's the perfect way to find peace for a few minutes if you're waiting for a bus or a dinner reservation nearby.Visited September 2020Written January 5, 2021
- jzrtogo5 contributionsLike a miniature Butchart in the center of KelownaIts a small garden park in the middle of downtown. Smart design, the perfect place for a rest and some peace if you are travel weary. Pick up a sandwich at a local deli, relax and enjoy your lunch overlooking the koi pond. A great way to recharge.Visited June 2020Written June 15, 2020
- Samuel HCalgary, Canada196 contributionsGreat place to visit to forget the worldCame here on a Tuesday after lunch to checkout the garden. The garden is very well done - very tranquil with seating area and koi in the pond. Certainly, a great place to chat with a friend, eat a snack/lunch, or just contemplate your existence. There was a slight breeze while we were there which was nice. Very well done albeit a little smaller than we were expecting. Great location as it is right across the water front and boardwalk. Worth a visit if you're in the area.Visited August 2022Written August 25, 2022

Beautiful gardens with an impressive collection of koi carp in the ponds, Not large but well worth a visit. This is a lovely peaceful spot in downtown Kelowna.

Beautiful hidden Japanese garden in downtown Kelowna next to City Hall.
Flowering trees in bloom. Very peaceful with small stream and koi fish in pond. Some benches and trellis.
Check out the photo of sign regarding what to do if gates locked.

We toured through this beautiful but somewhat hidden Japanese garden as part of our 3-hour walking tour of Kelowna. This is a beautiful little garden and admission is free!

Small and easily missable but worth finding.
Beautifully manicured gardens with nice water features and quiet seating areas to reflect on life

What a beautiful gem in downtown Kelowna! Its very well cared for. Its a bit hard to find. We were on the Taste of Kelowna food tour which was great to learn a bit about the beautiful park and the fish in the pond.

Sorry didn't see this question till now. The Garden I believe is closed now. Usually closes in Oct/Nov. The garden is beautiful anytime of the year that it is open. It should open again in March.

It depends how far you would like to go on the first day and what kind of environment you prefer. Revelstoke is a really nice mountain town with a very pleasant downtown vibe. It's only about 2 1/2 hrs from Kamloops so would leave you with a 4 1/2 hr drive the next day, during which you may want to stop for the spectacular scenery in the national parks which would add a bit to your time. Or you could drive 5 1/2 hrs the first day and stay in Banff, which is a very busy tourist town with prices to match but nevertheless a beautiful spot. Or stay in Canmore just down the road, also a beautiful town. It would leave you with just an hour's drive to Calgary from there.
There are also other stops along the way, just as Golden, between Recelstoke and Banff. Or Field, a really tiny place between Golden and Banff with a cool little lodge called the Truffle Pigs. Good restaurant there too. It really depends on the type of place you like.
