Choklit Park

Prime parks for a scenic outdoor picnic in Vancouver

Founded in 1970 by Purdy’s Chocolates owner Charles Flavelle, who wished for a children’s park next to his factory (since closed in 1982), this aptly-named historical site offers views of False Creek, a series of pretty terraces, and a substantial collection of trees and shrubbery. Ideal for evenings spent sipping hot cocoa and watching the sunset, this tiny park can’t accommodate large groups, so head here for a romantic picnic in an intimate setting.
