Self-Guided Tours
The City of Brampton has made great strides in revitalizing our floral heritage and building a reputation as Canada's Flower City. Brampton showcases some of the most interesting and beautiful flowerbeds and floral displays in the province.
Through our beautification program, the City has planted millions of bulbs and flowers to beautify our streets, parks, open spaces and public facilities. With over 400 roadside gardens and 1 million spring flowers, you'll see why Brampton was the 2008 Communities in Bloom International Winner!

The Brampton Cemetery is an enriching and vital heritage site that represents the strength and endurance of our founding citizens. It symbolizes and pays tribute to the small town of resilient people who struggled to build Brampton's character and commerce. As you stroll through the cemetery, make sure to take in the mature trees and the beautiful green space. In the days before public parks, cemeteries were used as parkland and places of relaxation.
Established in 1863 the Brampton Cemetery is home to a noteworthy collection of monuments made up of a wide variety of shapes, colours, sizes, inscriptions and types of stone. Ranging from the early sandstone memorials to the large, rough blocks of granite and impressive high columns, to delicate marble statues and intricately carved head-stones. These monuments represent family traditions, regional symbols and the lifestyles of the people who built the foundation for this great city
