Vancouver

Vancouver is a big city but the actual downtown area is not that big. Its a nice city to have an evening stroll and beach time. I have not been able to visit all the sightseeing spots in Vancouver but here are a few that I have prioritized and have been able to visit.

• Vancouver – Stanley park

If its not a rainy day, it will be perfect to rent a bike and drive through Stanley park. We drove the bikes on a rainy day and was not so pleasant but managed to drive by all the nice spots at the park

• Vancouver – Capilano Suspension Bridge

Its a beautiful must see bridge and surrounding areas. Tickets are a bit costly. Be sure to take your tickets online ahead of time Capilano Suspension Bridge Park | North Vancouver, BC (capbridge.com)

The tree top adventure there is really unique. Small hanging bridges connecting tree to tree and making a trail. They also have parks Canada exhibits, and informative desks. When we were there they were giving info about an owl usually found in Vancouver area and we got to see the owl and hear its voice.

• Grouse Mountain

It is definitely a good one to visit using the Gondola or via the hike. Coming from Calgary and have done the Sulphur mountain gondola we thought this might be similar and decided to skip it. Even though we did the hike for some time, we were not equipped with proper footwear to finish the hike. I just have couple of pics from this place but I think this should be a good one to do.

• Vancouver Downtown, Waterfront and Beaches

FlyOver Canada is an amazing 4D theater experience – virtual flight across Canada. I liked this one the most in my whole Vancouver experience. Make Sure to book your tickets earlier – https://www.flyovercanada.com/

Sunset beach is a good one for evening walk

English Bay Beach – A good one for walk or bike

Some sights from walk by the Marina and the downtown

• Vancouver aquarium

Vancouver aquarium brings to us the colorful world under water and some noisy seals !
