I am going to Vancouver, Canada in April. Any suggestions of places to visit?

Answer 1

It depends if you've been there or not, what sort of things you like, and how long you'll be there, but here's my abbreviated list of places that I like to show my friends:

Chinatown (make sure you hit the shops, the garden, and have lunch)
Gastown
Granville Island (buy some fudge and/or smoked salmon)
Museum of Anthropology (at UBC, then go for a walk down the cliff to Wreck Beach)
Robson Street (hang out, see the famous Starbucks corner, shop, have Japanese food)
Granville Street (avoid the porn shops, just go for a walk)
Canada Place (great view of the park and inlet)
YOU MUST NEVER GO TO VANCOUVER WITHOUT SEEING STANLEY PARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stanley Park! You can easily spend a day just walking around. Bring a camera.
Victoria for a day-trip. If you're spending a week plus, you can't miss this either.

I could go on and on. That should be enough to keep you busy.

Make sure you eat some B.C. rolls (type of sushi), smoked salmon, and have a good coffee somewhere like on Commercial Drive. Starbucks is fun to look at, but Vancouver is a great city for coffee and a few non-chain stores still exist and have character.

Answer 2

Aquarium, Science World, Planetarium, Whistler, Gastown, take the seabus, Capilano Suspention Bridge, Tree Top tour

Answer 3

Ivory: I actually live on the Sunshine Coast, a ferry away. Unfortunately, I'll be leaving work in a minute. If you'd like to email me. That would be fine and maybe we can connect tomorrow. Lots of great ideas. What are you into?

Answer 4

Go to Gastown, great shopping there.
