Go for a walk, run or bike. Stanley Park is a great place to spend a day and enjoy the views.

Being here was a dream come true for me. Before changing my University major to Sociology, I had started my major in Anthropology. As many times as I had been to Vancouver in the past, I had never been here. So, I made it a priority to make it up to UBC to visit the museum on this trip. I was so…

Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden is one of the must-see attractions in Vancouver. I had never been to a Chinese Garden before. I really liked it there, because it was pretty relaxing to sit on a bench and enjoy the view. Fortunately, when I visited it, there were not many people around.

English Bay is beautiful. I’d seen it before, but had never taken pictures of it. The only problem is, I didn’t have my camera with me when I went there. The day of my aunt’s departure to Brazil, I decided to go with her to the airport. One of my other aunts had agreed to drive her there, …

Probably best known for its cobbled streets and the steam clock, this is a great place to visit. Gastown, originally named ‘Granville’ was established the same year that Canada became a nation (1867). 19 years later, in 1886, Gastown was incorporated into Vancouver. Despite a rough patch duri…

This is the main train and bus station in Vancouver. It is also my office as I work for one of the bus companies. Station was built in 1919 by the Canadian Northern Railway.
It now is home to Via Rail which heads east from here towards Edmonton and points east. Amtrak also leaves from here, sou…

Going to the PNE on opening day is something I will never do again. I knew that I was going to go sometime on my vacation, however I didn’t know when that was going to be. It turns out that two of my aunts wanted to go, too. So, we all decided that we would go together. The one hitch was that …

The Stanley Park seawall is something everyone can enjoy when they visit Vancouver. Whether or not you're a runner, walker, biker, skateboarder, inline skater etc., you'll enjoy this part of the park. It's approximately 9km all the way around the Stanley Park portion. Expanded in the late seventies/…

Going to a Canucks game while in Vancouver is necessary in my opinion. The hard thing about it is finding tickets! The price of tickets is outrageous in my opinion and they sell out very fast. The Canucks have sold out GM Place for 4 straight seasons I believe. But once your in, the experience is gr…

My husband and I stopped by Granville Island in early September when we were visiting Vancouver. It was a short ferry ride from our hotel, which allowed us to spend some time on the water and get some great photo shots of Vancouver. The Island itself was so much fun to see. There's a great indoor…

The HSBC Celebration of Light is a fireworks event hold in English Bay, Vancouver, BC, Canada. This event is in summer season (end of July and first week of August).
I've gone to this event for the past 2 years and it is out of this world. Downtown Vancouver is closed and a lot of people goes to …

When you plan to visit the University of British Columbia, you should not miss the Nitobe Garden. It is a nice place to relax. When I visited, I saw a lot of UBC students having their lunch at the garden.

Burnaby mountain has the most beautiful view of burnaby and vancouver, especially at night time, you can see everything! I wouldnt recommend going to the restaurant 'horizons' located on the top of the mountain, as it is VERY overpriced. Burnaby mountain is the perfect place to spend an hour or so e…

The easiest way to get here is get to waterfront station (probably by sky train) and then take the sea-bus over to this North Vancouver market. It’s the same idea as what the public market at Granville Island is, however this one isn’t nearly as great as the Granville Island one is. This one h…

The Vancouver Giants are a WHL hockey team that play at the Pacific Colliseum in Vancouver. These games are a lot more accessable that Canucks games, but still tons of fun when you go to a good game. Sometimes they are even more entertaining when you go to a game when they play against a good rival.…
