I don't remember who the sculptor was, but this is an impressive piece of work. I used to look at it from the revolving restaurant of a nearby hotel, at different times of the year. It was most impressive in winter, covered in snow and ice. More

Me and the girlfriend walked to the park and there was a brisk wind coming off the water. It was worth bearing the cool weather for though. The park was very clean and had a very nice walking path.

This is a large park/garden overlooking the St. Lawrence, and for those who love flowers, it's a must-see. The varieties of orchids and every variety of flowering plant, with plenty of park benches, makes it a great stop More

What a perfect stop to a busy day of Quebec sightseeing, walking, etc. Tranquil, quiet, beautiful garden, plenty of benches, not crowded at all. Well worth a brief detour while in Quebec. More
