Fabulous scenery, great shopping, outstanding attractions

Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Centre

Activity

Vancouver Aquarium

This is an outstanding place to visit, from the colorful fish tanks to the dolphin show. You get really close to the seals, dolphins, and Beluga whales. The gift shop carries everything. It's very informative about specific species of fish and an excellent place to take the family!

If you love flowers, this is the place to see them. There are outstanding flowers in shapes of different things, and you can take many paths to go to different gardens and beautiful waterfalls. They even have a vintage VW beetle dressed with thousands of flowers.

Stanley Park

Stanley Park

Beautiful scenery of the ocean and downtown Vancouver. Nice totem poles, water park, and horse-drawn carriages. You can see forever out into the ocean and walk, bike, run, or rollerblade all through the wonders of Stanley Park.

Metrotown Centre

Activity

Metrotown

If you are ever in Burnaby, you need to check out Metrotown. It is the biggest mall in BC. It is like two malls in one, with great shopping, like the Disney Store, Chapters, Old Navy, and excellent specialty stores. There is so much there, you will need a whole day just to see it all.

Hells Gate

Activity

Hells Gate

This is a beautiful place to visit. You take a drive north of Chilliwack along the CPR, with marvelous scenery for miles and miles. You come to Hells Gate and then take the air trolley down to the resturant, gift shops, and bridge across the Frasier River. There are spectacular views of the Fraser River and valley for miles. You can cross the bridge and feel the rush of the water beneath your feet. You can even catch a glimpse of people white-water rafting. It's a must-see place.
