Chinese New Year: Dr. Sun Yat Sen Chinese Garden

Vancouver, British Columbia is the location of Canada's largest Chinatown. Every Lunar New Year, the streets host a wide range of events as well in many of its stunning attractions such as the Dr. Sun Yat Sen Chinese Garden. From February 4-6, 2011, this authentic Ming Scholar Garden is decorated with dozens of red lanterns and decorations, and at night (on February 5, 2011), these lanterns are lit up while visitors walk along the pathways while enjoying the beautiful architecture and landscape. Visit the Dr. Sun Yat Sen Chinese Garden as it celebrates Chinese New Year!
