The Stanley Park Memorials & Mariners Walk

The stops

1. 01
   Japanese Canadian War Memorial

   A Vancouver memorial honoring Japanese Canadian soldiers who served in the First and Second World Wars. It is located in Stanley Park near the west end of the Japanese Canadian War Memorial path.

2. 02
   Warren Gamaliel Harding Memorial

   A commemorative stop that reflects the park’s role as a landscape of remembrance and civic symbolism, even beyond the strongest waterfront icons.

3. 03
   Lord Stanley Statue

   A fitting civic marker for a Stanley Park tour, tying the park’s identity to the figure whose name anchors its history and public image.

4. 04
   Lost Lagoon

   This made-made lagoon preserves the name of a place that once shifted with tides and reclamation, turning shoreline change into a living memory of the park’s ecological transformation.

5. 05
   Queen Victoria Memorial

   A formal commemorative stop that reflects the imperial-era layer of the park’s history and its role as a civic monument landscape.

6. 06
   Her Majesty's Canadian Ship Discovery

   A naval-history stop that evokes Canada’s maritime identity and the park’s long relationship to harbor defense, training, and seafaring memory.

7. 07
   Brockton Oval

   The open field in the forested park speaks to how Stanley Park became a civic landscape for sport and gathering while remaining embedded within a larger ecosystem of trees and shoreline.

8. 08
   Empress of Japan Figurehead

   This ship figurehead connects the park to Pacific navigation, ship imagery, and the broader history of maritime trade and travel on the coast.

9. 09
   X̱wáy̓x̱way

   An important Indigenous place name within the Stanley Park landscape, but the stop itself is less developed as a tourist experience than the major waterfront and forest landmarks.
