Queens Park and the Ontario Legislative Building

Nice place to sit and relax and watch the people go about their day. Has a bunch of seats around the statue like it's king of s--t mountain, but it's nice. Kids skateboard there and you can watch them fail at the tricks over and over again.

Queen's Park in Toronto is a nice relief. Right in the middle, you'll find an impressive statue of King Edward VII on a horse, which gives the park a unique charm. It's a popular spot, especially with students and faculty from the nearby University of Toronto, so there's appears to always a lively, friendly atmosphere. The park is perfect for a leisurely walk, a picnic, or just sitting on a bench and enjoying the greenery. It’s got a great mix of nature, history, and good vibes, a few tents, but on the whole making it a wonderful escape from the city noise. Definitely a must-visit if you're around and love green. Also contains established white oak trees and other Northern American trees.

I am no Lady Whistledown, albeit I art to leave a proper review on Queen’s Park through a Victorian lens. Dearest reader, if one were to seek a locale that epitomizes the pinnacle of genteel leisure and natural splendor, Queens Park would undoubtedly stand unrivaled. Nestled gracefully within our esteemed city, this park is a jewel of pastoral beauty, a veritable paradise where one might promenade with the utmost elegance. Imagine, if you will, strolling along the immaculate pathways, where the verdant shrubbery, arranged with exquisite precision, frames each step with a regal charm befitting Her Majesty’s own gardens. It is here that one’s senses are enraptured by the harmonious interplay of light and shadow upon the lush foliage, creating an ever-changing tapestry of green that is both delightful and serene. As the soft murmur of the breeze gently caresses the treetops, the air is filled with the sweet perfume of blossoms in full bloom, a heady bouquet that intoxicates the spirit and elevates the soul. One cannot help but be captivated by the vivid palette of the flowerbeds, each petal contributing to a symphony of colors that dance in the sunlight. The lawns, impeccably manicured, provide a verdant carpet where one might recline and ponder the whims of fate and fortune. In every nook and cranny of Queens Park, there lies a scene of bucolic enchantment, a perfect setting for clandestine meetings and whispered confidences. Indeed, dear reader, Queens Park is a sanctuary of unparalleled beauty and grace, where the splendor of nature and the sophistication of society meet in harmonious accord. Almost as good as madame Delacroix’s fine establishment.
