Expo City Announces Temporary Closure Of Its Famous Garden In The Sky Attraction

This isn’t the news we really wanted to share, but here it is! Expo City’s famous Garden In The Sky is closing down- thankfully for a short period. Dubbed ‘the flying park’, Garden in the Sky is a rotating observation tower that lifts visitors 55 metres above ground for beautiful panoramic views of the city. Earning its name from its luscious green, tree-lined upper deck, the base of the tower beams with light at night, as do rings around the observation cabins, lending the attraction an out-of-this-world glow.
