The other half, of course, resides just across the border in its sister park, Peace Arch Provincial Park. As the name suggests, the monument is a symbol of the cooperation between both countries in keeping our border safe. It is the only arch erected in the interest of peace among nations, and many wedding and family celebrations take place here.
