Vancouver - Canada
Built on hilly terrain next to the Pacific Ocean, a wander around Vancouver offers many stunning views of the ocean, the bays and the city itself. The downtown area is a good place to start your exploration. The renovated Victorian Gastown area has boutiques and antique shops to browse, Granville Island is a bustling area with a diverse mix of art shops and a public market. To step down a gear take time to wander through Stanley Park, the largest urban park in Canada with trails through forests, lakes and meadows.
Explore Vancouver by foot and using the public transport as driving and parking can be tricky. Once you leave the city it is only a short drive to the scenic alpine resort of Whistler, and the Rocky Mountains and Pacific coast are there to discover
