  • Ravi Taxali

    A beautiful, well designed park. A treat for the eyes. Earlier, the parking used to be free, but now you need to pay $2.50 for half an hour, though you can park for free on the North of Lawrence Road, across the Edwards Garden.

  • Julia Z

    I absolutely love this park. It is beautiful and tranquil at any time of the year. Spring and fall are the best time to enjoy the flowers or the tree colours and the quiet walks here.

  • Hamideh N.

    Located near midtown Toronto, Edwards Gardens provides many parks and gardens, including educational and recreational spaces, all nestled along the picturesque Don River. I love walking and hiking here, as there’s always a new route to discover and excitement to be found in my explorations. However, I encountered a minor inconvenience today—I couldn’t locate the washroom. The park could also benefit from additional signage and informative plaques to enhance the visitor experience.
