The movie opens showing the Canadian Museum of Civilization. Panning right we see the Alexandra Bridge and the statue of Samuel De Champlain on top of Nepean Point. Next is the glass dome of the National Gallery of Canada. Majors Hill Park fills the area to the right all the way to the Fairmont Chateau Laurier Hotel, the white building directly across the Ottawa River. In the valley to the right is the Rideau Canal and Ottawa Locks. Dominating the skyline is Parliament Hill with the Library of Parliament, Centre Block and the Peace Tower. Farther to the right we can see the tops of the office towers in downtown Ottawa. This garden of red roses runs along the stone retaining wall on the shore of the Ottawa River. The new Canada Garden on the museum grounds has 11 gardens featuring flora and fauna from all parts of Canada. The garden also includes the Provincial and Territorial flowers of Canada's 10 Provinces and 3 Territories. The Ottawa River flows from the right of the picture to the left.
