What to see in Vancouver

Vancouver is a city on the Pacific coast with an amazing combination of urban life and wildlife. Its history has absorbed sea transportation, immigrant traditions and the spirit of the west coast, and the modern look is created by glass skyscrapers, cozy neighborhoods and quaint corners overlooking the mountains. The atmosphere here is both energetic and measured: you can start the day in a cafe on Robson Street and in an hour be on a quiet promenade or in a forest park.

Man-made attractions of Vancouver amaze with diversity and accessibility. In the heart of the city lies Stanley Park with historic piers, the statue of Inukshuk and the Lost Lagoon.

On the observation tower Vancouver Lookout from a height of 168.60 meters opens a panorama of the whole city. The cultural palette is formed by the Cathedral of the Holy Rosary, the Russian Orthodox Resurrection Cathedral and the cozy Chinese Sun Yat-sen Garden. Family entertainment is offered by Hastings Park Racecourse and Playland Amusement Park, while botanical collections are collected at VanDusen and UBC Botanical Garden.
