Devonian Gardens

Devonian Gardens is a popular downtown escape. This large botanical refuge is an indoor oasis located on the top floor of the CORE Shopping Centre.​​​ ​Find a quiet spot to get lost in a good book, have lunch in the park, or take advantage of this beautiful indoor spot for family portraits, wedding party photos, and non-commercial photography. The space is also bookable for private events. When Devonian Gardens opened in 1977, it attracted international attention. Today it remains Calgary's only indoor park, full of tropical plants, natural light and balmy temperatures all year long. Meandering walkways lead guests past water fountains, over tree-decked plazas, to ponds teaming with fish. Enjoy the park during open hours of the CORE Shopping Centre, especially before or after the lunch hour on weekdays when it bustles with downtown office workers.
