About Vancouver

Vancouver ligt tussen bergen en de Stille Oceaan, een groene stad voor buitenmensen, met het Seawall-wandelpad, beboste parken, stranden en diverse wijken.

Stanley Park, een enorm bebost schiereiland naast het centrum, wordt omcirkeld door de Seawall, een pad langs het water dat bij wandelaars en fietsers geliefd is, en is bij Brockton Point bezaaid met totempalen. De openbare markt, ambachtelijke ateliers en theaters van Granville Island liggen onder een brug over False Creek, en Gastown, de oudste wijk, heeft straten met kinderkopjes en zijn beroemde stoomklok.
