Here for the Tulip festival 2022 the weather is beautiful but I think a little hard on the tulips as they are mostly past peak and some even faded. We went back at night for the pollinator UV experience and I didn't even take pictures it was a joke. Mostly an advertisement. Not here to stop people from taking it in, our walk by the water was incredible and with a full moon the wife says we should have played the Tulip bingo, and also we should have gone on the haunted walk Tulip edition.
Went for the tulip garden displays. Beautiful, even in the rain. Terrific stories of how the tulip festival came to be with story boards of historical events between Canada and the Netherlands. Interesting story board of war brides and how they ended up meeting their spouses. Several food trucks and tulip vendors also in the park.
It was great. We went here for the annual Canadian tulip festival this weekend. Got to see Princess Margriet. The tulips are beautiful, so many colours! Commissioners Park is wonderful. There is a statue here called The Man With The Two Hats. You can take a walk along the side of the lake and there is a restaurant overlooking Dow’s Lake it was very busy inside. Nice spots on the grass to sit and bird watch or squirrel watch if you’d like. Very good place for picture taking. Thank you.
Check out the tulip festival in May. So well done. Perfect park for relaxing & having a good day in great surroundings. Restrooms: Clean porta potties. Restrooms in restaurants. Dog-friendliness: Plenty of room to walk your dog. Must be on a leash. Picnic area: Plenty of places to have a picnic.
Just dropped by yesterday with my parents, and we all loved the place. Very clean area, and lots of space for walking or biking or other outdoor activities. The Rideau Canal looks fresh and beautiful. Will revisit in the next 2 weeks for Tulips Festival 2022
Loved it! Calm and laid back. Its $14 for a day at Dow's lake parking, but its money well spent.
Commissioners park is a must see location to see beautiful tulips and other seasonal flowers. The tulip flower has special meaning as Canada, Ottawa, provided safe haven to the Netherlands royalty during German occupation in WWII. Also in the park you will see the Man with two hats, this too is a sign of appreciation and friendship between Canada and the Netherlands. The monument has symbolic duality meaning with the two hats, such as; celebration and war, happiness and sorrow. You can also enjoy looking out at Dows Lake. If you like my photos, reviews or videos give them a tulips thumbs up
An obviously gorgeous area to walk/bike/run/sit. Less traffic early morning and weekdays! Tulips are in full swing this year and are so delightful, a wide range of colours and all over the area of Dow's Lake.
One of the most photographed scenes in Ottawa! Large greeneries next to Dows Lake, home to the annual TulipFest. This public park is well maintained and free to all. Multi-functional trail is located next to the Rideau Canal. Beautiful and accessible to everyone. Highly recommend!
Beautiful park to walk thru, tulips are everywhere. Next to daws lake in the middle of the city . Takes to some nice houses near buy if you like to look at houses.
