One of the most vibrant cities in the Northwest, Vancouver is a sophisticated and culturally rich metropolis. Like many cities you’ll find diversity within its neighborhoods. Especially Vancouver, where each neighborhood reflects a unique personality and character. Yaletown where brick warehouses have brilliantly been transformed into loft apartments, boutique shops, chic restaurants and offices. Vancouver’s Chinatown, declared a historic district in 1971, is one of the oldest and largest in North America. False Creek Basin and Granville Island offer an eclectic art community and open market environment. Gastown is Vancouver’s oldest neighbor and reflects the cities heritage through restored brick buildings and is a popular tourism attraction offering souvenir shops, First Nation art galleries and boutique shops. A shoppers dream is found along the fashionable Robson Street – luxury fashion shops, trendy restaurants and a lively coffeehouse scene.
Vancouver is set in an incredible Northwest setting. The surrounding Coastal Mountains literally fall to the cities doorstep and simmering sea. One of the few places in the world where you can ski in the morning and sail in the afternoon. Our team at Destination Northwest would be delighted to enlighten you on all the fascinating museums, hotels, restaurants and unique attractions to this extraordinary destination, home to 2010 Winter Olympics.
