See Vancouver!
The Vancouver Tourism website is a great
resource for discovering some of the great things you can do while in A Few Suggestions
Stanley Park: Recognized as one of the great city parks in
the world, Stanley Park is close to the downtown core
and represents a lush sampling of British Columbia's temperate rainforest
environment. Walk or bicycle around the seawall, visit the aquarium, or
perhaps just enjoy the tranquility of nature. Vancouver Art Gallery: Located at the heart of the downtown
core (750 Hornby Street) the Vancouver Art Gallery always has wonderful
exhibitions and collections on show. Gastown: As the historic birthplace of the city of
Vancouver, just blocks away from Canada Place, Gastown
is home to cobblestone streets and the historic steam clock. Also enjoy great
dining at the many restaurants and cafes. Granville Island: Easily one of the most delightful treasure
tucked away in Vancouver, Granville Island is home to great food, arts
& entertainment, local artists, and of course, the world-famous Public
Market. Shopping: Whether inside Pacific
Centre Mall on a rainy day or outside on Robson Street
when the weather is more forgiving, Vancouver has some world class shopping
to be explored. Canada Place: Experience a film on the five story high IMAX
screen or simply walk down the promenade and enjoy the view of Vancouver and
Stanley Park. Visit Canada Place's website to learn more
