Major's Hill Park is one of the most notable parks in downtown Ottawa. The park stands above the Rideau Canal at the point where it enters the Ottawa River. Across the canal to the west are the parliament buildings, to the north of the park is the National Gallery of Canada, and to the east are the United States embassy and the Byward Market. To the south is the Chateau Laurier hotel, built upon land that was once part of the park.

The neighborhood surrounding the park was once home to those who constructed the canal. In particular, the area that is now the park was the official residence of the Supervising Engineer of Canal Works and therefore home of Lieutenant-Colonel John By. The hill came to be known by his rank. However, in 1832 "Colonel's Hill" became Major's Hill when By was replaced by Major Daniel Bolton. The residence was destroyed by fire in 1849, though ruins survive to today.

The use of the area as a residence gives the park the rather unusual quality of remaining a green space since the early days of Ottawa. It is now managed by the National Capital Commission, which has placed historical information in the northwest corner of the park.

Hill Park is situated on a hilltop surrounded by a residential area known as PECHS neighborhood of Jamshed Town in Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan. It has many amusement spots, fast food centers, restaurants, a pond and other facilities. Each day people from all parts of the city, especially families, visit this park.

The Administration of Ayub Khan approved Hill Park in the mid-1960s as there were not many recreational spots around the city during those days. Due to the location and structure of the hill in the midst of the PECHS Society, the authorities decided to build a park over there. The construction work started in 1968. And there was a small notice board, which read in Urdu: Yahan hill park baney ga - Hill park will be constructed here.
