Peace Arch Provincial Park Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions

Peace Arch Provincial Park (PeaceArchProvincialPark) is more of a symbol and a memorial. This park is located at the southern end of Highway 99, on the US-Canada border. It is composed of PeaceArchProvincialPark in Canada in the north and PeaceArchStatePark in Washington State in the south. In the middle is the border line and the iconic building PeaceArch-a symbol of friendship between the United States and Canada. The Peace Arch was built to commemorate the centenary of the Treaty of Ghent signed between the United States and the United Kingdom in 1814. The arch was completed in 1921 as a peace symbol. The arch is a Greek-style building, about 30 meters high. The lintel on the Canadian side reads: Brethren DwellingTogether in Unity (Brethren Unite), and the lintel on the American side reads: Childrenofa CommonMother (Children of the same mother). These are two inspiring words and the common wish of peace-loving people. Today, the more than 6,000 kilometers of the US-Canada border line under the arch is a long undefended border line, as the saying on the east side of the door: "MayTheseGatesNeverClose".

A stroll through the Peace Gate Park on the border, where half of the US and Canadian territory is free to cross the border, without any guardrails and barriers, is said to be the longest unguarded border in the world. The park is full of grass, many people, children, or friends, barbecue and picnic, enjoying this short sunny summer [sun]. I heard a joke before that the western neighborhood always has a thought: how can you make your own grass more beautiful than your neighbors? Now it seems that there is such a possibility. I feel that the grass in the park of Peace Gate is particularly well maintained, and a large green area is neatly trimmed, which makes people feel good when looking at it. Hahaha, we can't let our grass be inferior to our neighbors.
I traveled from the USA to Vancouver via Peace Arch Border. The Peace Arch Provincial Park is an iconic Washington Historical State Park devoted to peace and serenity. It consists of two parks in two countries. The southern half of the park is owned by Washington State Parks and the northern half, by British Columbia Parks.
美加边境上的开放式公园,和平拱门是蛮有名的经典景点,可以地跨美国和加拿大来张照片,但是之前2年疫情影响下都关闭了,公园旁边就是美加边境过关车辆就在两边车道过,还是很繁忙的关口。
和平门省立公园(Peach Arch Provincial Park),其拱门洁白华美,绿草丰茂、植被齐整。另一景观是公园旁的车流。从加拿大欲过关到美国的车辆,非常缓慢地行进着。从Peach Arch免税店到公园的拱门,约1公里的路程,随着车流花了1小时。想来公园参观,就不得不跟在从加拿大到美国的车队中行进,必须预留足够的回程时间。
