Vancouver

Gas town



Welcome to Gastown, one of Vancouver's best known attractions. Here you will find the opportunity to experience architecture from the early 1900's in an atmosphere of cobblestones, Victorian street fixtures with some narrow lanes to explore. As well there is shopping in exotic and eclectic boutiques and galleries offering product that cannot be found elsewhere in the city. The range of food and drink establishments is unsurpassed in its variety.









Granville Island Market

Surrounded by marinas and enriched by views, Granville Island is located on the south shore of False Creek, in Downtown Vancouver. Granville Island is connected to the city by a causeway, epitomizing the West Coast outdoorsy lifestyle.

Day and night, it's a thriving warren of shops, artists' studios, restaurants, theatres, nightclubs and galleries. It's easy to think that False Creek has always been the watery playground on the inner city.

Most evenings, primarily from April to October, the sheltered finger off Burrard Inlet teems with a mix of canoes, dragon boats, kayaks, sculls, sailboats, tugboats, and stinkpots. Once a declining 37-acre industrial park, this tiny island in the middle of a metropolitan city of two million has been transformed into a vibrant, people-friendly place to be.
