The famous sunken garden (top center photo) was originally the limestone quarry for the Butchart family business, but after the limestone was extracted in the early 20th century, Jennie Butchart began a transformation of the area that now attracts more than 1 million visitors a year.
There are water lilies to paint and rest by, as you might find in Giverny, as well as nicely placed benches and scenic spots for creative inspiration of any kind. A peak at the bay? Resting under a canopy of roses? Or, maybe you'd like to ride the carousel? Finding beautiful places is a great way to begin creating the 3 preconditions for innovation!
