The essential guide to Vancouver
Vancouver is dazzling! It’s generously endowed with natural splendor,
snow capped mountains, temperate rainforests and the ocean! But it’s
also a vibrant city with a glassy downtown and dozens of unique
neighbourhoods to explore!
As the largest city located on Canada’s west coast, Vancouver is both
naturally astounding and abundant in arts, culture, and diversity. For
visitors, it’s a year-round treasure trove of activities and experiences. It’s
possible to go boating in the morning, skiing in the afternoon, and watch
your favorite band performing in the evening.
Vancouver is meant to be experienced outdoors. Thanks to its
temperate climate, the city has its fair share of lush outdoor spaces, the
largest among them being Stanley Park. After you’ve strolled some of its
nearly 1,000 acres, visit some of the city’s other beloved outdoor
attractions like Queen Elizabeth Park or VanDusen Botanical Garden.
For a real thrill, take a walk across the Capilano Suspension Bridge,
which hovers 230 feet above Capilano River. When you’re ready to
refuel, you’ll have your pick of delicious market eats at Granville Island
and Lonsdale Quay.
The hotel staff have compiled a list of recommended activities to help
you experience the area’s most popular attractions in Vancouver and
hidden treasures! Visit our concierge team for more information.
