- betty lBrampton, Canada10,588 contributionsThe best time to come here is during Spring where there is a nice display of tulips and cherry blossoms.Written August 3, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- StormfloraToronto, Canada34 contributionsThis conservatory was amazing. Lots of exotic plants to see, and even turtles as well. Would definitely visit again, especially once the middle section is rebuilt and open to the public.Written July 5, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Bruno T.Toronto, Canada754 contributionsIt is a beautiful place to walk or bike around. In winter time they have a lot of winter activities as well.Written June 10, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sarah BRochester, NY67 contributionsBeautifully designed garden. Recommend for people who are actually interested in local plans and garden design, or a pleasant short walk. This is not a big showy botanical garden-type place. My husband is a passionate gardener and we enjoyed following the planned routes, observing how the flower and plant selections worked together, and how the design of the whole integrated these things.Written August 27, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- emfeAthens_GeorgiaAthens, GA236 contributionsWe enjoyed the small Toronto Botanical Garden which is located within the Edwards Gardens. It was a nice way to see plants that are good choices for the area but plant signage could be improved upon. The garden is free but there is a fee for parking which is a bit quirky. We did not go further into the Edwards garden and stayed less than an hour in the actual Toronto Bot garden.Written July 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- carrie wIpswich, UK1,227 contributionsWent to Christmas at Kew, light trail last night. It was very wet and there were a lot of puddles that were hard to see. It was quite muddy and slippery.
The lights and exhibits were amazing.
Quite a few food and drink places doted around, but very expensive.
In all a lovely experience but we wouldn’t rush back.
The end with the lights, layers, fire and music is spectacular.Written December 19, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Clean and quite place.Written September 19, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- KodoDrummerBuenos Aires, Argentina64,821 contributionsIt was hot, very humid today, with some rain showers today. Thus there were fewer people at the park. We enjoyed walking on the forest trails to get away from the scorching sunlight.Written July 24, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- KruzonBangkok205 contributionsChef LeeZ Thai Cooking Class Bangkok and crew visited this year-round attraction of butterflies. It was a most interesting place with a mix of plants and thousands of butterflies from southern climates.Written October 12, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Harry A3 contributionsAs a neighbourhood resident, I visit this lovely urban park almost weekly throughout the year. Very popular with young families and those having outdoor birthday parties. Each season has a different feel to it, and each it's own beauty. Look for various types of birds (ducking from the red-winged black birds in spring is a fun activity), rabbits, amphibians.....and twice I've seen coyotes.....once at 5:30 am (2 of them rough-housing) and once in the middle of the afternoon (keeping out of sight in the grass.....although I obviously saw it). But don't worry....your chances of seeing one are practically nil.Written September 3, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Edward WOttawa, Canada1,643 contributionsIt is a nice park, though really it doesn't differ much from the rest of the waterfront along this stretch.Written March 20, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- PauladeToronto, Canada355 contributionsBeautiful little park connecting to miles of walks all the way into Toronto city !! I’d say a really nice place to visit any time of the year but it was particularly beautiful with the blooming of the springtime bluebells !Written April 18, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Elena PGuadalajara, Mexico4,856 contributionsSmall park, but also nice area to walk and spend some time away from the crowded streets of Toronto.Written June 26, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Gingers_in_the_sun👩🏻🦰☀️Ottawa, Canada240 contributionsWe went on Thanksgiving week-end with a 3 year old and a baby (7 months). Although everything on the island was closed, he enjoyed running through the garden, visiting with the many Franklin and friend statues and exploring the “secret” paths. We were able to peek into the little houses but would come back in the summer when it’s open. Great for a kid who needs to move!Written October 8, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- 6A Pixels-LumenToronto, Canada2 contributionsThe space is beautiful, inviting and always clean. JP and Amanda are excellent hosts and communicate from start to finish with a welcoming vibe. Crazy not to book their studio if you are looking to do anything from a photoshoot to a small event with them!Written June 6, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
