WCMT 2023 Cultural Tours

Dr. Sun Yat Sen Garden

Located in the heart of Vancouver’s historical Chinatown neighborhood, Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Garden is a Ming Dynasty-style garden, the first among its kind to have been built outside of China. Named World’s Top City Garden by National Geographic, the garden features covered walkways, beautiful pavilions and a collection of 150-year old miniature trees and tai hu rocks. Explore the garden with a guided tour, followed by a tea talk with a tea master, where you learn the significance of tea in Chinese culture. Tour participants will have the opportunity to take the transportation back to the Vancouver Convention Centre or explore on own, all Chinatown has to offer.
