Gardens of Light

Immerse yourself in the enchantment of the Botanical Garden. Rediscover the Chinese Garden, Japanese Garden and First Nations Garden illuminated with poetry, music and multicolored lanterns. This year, the Chinese Garden presents a captivating new creation inspired by the "Shan Hai Jing " (Classic of Mountains and Seas), a cornerstone of Chinese mythology. "Yûgen - Japanese Universe" is a beautiful homage to Japan’s islands and mountains, visually recreated or evoked through the plant life of the Japanese Garden. The illuminated path through the First Nations Garden beckons you on an immersive, poetic journey into the circle of life. As you walk, you’ll be carried along by the voice of Innu poet Joséphine Bacon and the songs of Moe Clark.
