11 Best Parks in Vancouver | Condé Nast Traveler
"Located on the False Creek waterfront with views to downtown Vancouver and the North Shore Mountains, the 17.6-acre Charleson Park bridges the gap between an urban environment (you’re looking north at a forest of high-rise towers) and a calculatedly placid setting. The meandering paths next to the lagoon are a stress-reducing stroll. Take the upper pathway toward a grove and you’ll eventually come across a waterfall; a small treasure, but worth it. If you’re a dog person, there's also an expansive off-leash area where Fido can romp freely." - Guy Saddy
