Fodor's Expert Review Victoria Park

Just behind the Hamilton Central Bus Terminal is a green oasis with plenty of benches and leafy shade to rest after sightseeing around the City of Hamilton. The highlight of the park is the ornate, grand bandstand erected in 1889 in commemoration of Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee. Today, it, along with the park, hosts many cultural events including concerts and festivals. Make sure to come to the park with an empty stomach—Leslie's Desserts creates European-style treats served out of an Airstream in the southeastern corner of the park. The freshly baked bubble waffles topped with caramel gelato and Lotus Biscoff cookie crumbles will not disappoint.
