Look at your home city with a fresh pair of eyes and you might find something new—no need to hop on and off a bus for these Vancouver sights. Rediscover updated favourites such as the new Cliffwalk at Vancouver’s oldest attraction, the Capilano Suspension Bridge, and New Westminster’s recently rebranded River Market. Visit some of the city’s true gems, including Dr. Sun Yat-Sen’s Classical Chinese Garden in the heart of Chinatown, Queen Elizabeth Park’s Bloedel Conservatory, a tropical dome inhabited by birds and botany, and the drawers of fossils and bird wings at the University of British Columbia’s Beaty Biodiversity Museum. Relive Vancouver history at the Old Hastings Mill Store Museum in Point Grey, and or take a walking tour with the Vancouver Police Museum, a captivating look at crimes both blue- and white-collar, and a window into Vancouver’s fascinating past. Don your “I Heart Van” gear, the city awaits.
