around to seeing them all is easy. If you're staying in the city
(and you probably are) you can walk to most attractions. The
Vancouver Museum highlights the growth and development of Vancouver
from an outpost of fishing and forestry to a world class city.
Science World is a great spot to take the kids so they can
experience the interactive exhibitions and see an eye-popping
OMNIMAX presentation. Adults will appreciate spending the time on
Granville Island, a former dingy collection of rusty warehouses now
transformed into galleries, shops, artists' studios and home to a
thriving public market the perfect place to pick up provision for a
picnic. The best place to start your visit is Vancouver Lookout at
Harbour Centre. Take a 45 second ride up a glass elevator to arrive
at a spectacular 360 Degrees view of the city, the surrounding
communities, the harbour and the mountains beyond. On a clear day
you may even see Vancouver Island. What you notice most when you re
perched above the city is how green it is. As the city developed
over the years, a large tract of forest was set aside, over 1,000
acres, destined to remain wild and serve as a reminder of whence
the city originated. So began Stanley Park. Located right in the
heart of the city, this green sanctuary is crisscrossed with
walking trails and surrounded by English Bay and a 6 mile seawall -
a lovely place for a stroll at sunset. Within the park are tennis
courts, playgrounds, a miniature golf course, restaurants, snack
bars and cafes, the Vancouver Aquarium, the Lost Lagoon where you
can feed ducks and raccoons, swimming beaches, a pool, a miniature
railroad for the kids, totem poles and a cannon that goes off
precisely at 9 PM each evening. The capital of British Columbia is
located at the tip of Vancouver Island, across the Straight of
Georgia from Vancouver. Very British in nature, Victoria has the
mildest climate in all of Canada. You can get to Victoria by taking
the 1 1/2 hour ferry ride from Tsawwassen, in south Vancouver to
Swartz Bay, about a half an hour from Victoria. Whatever adventure
you choose in this corner of Western Canada, the STREETWISE (R)
Vancouver Map will assist you. The main map covers all of Downtown
along with Stanley Park, Gastown, Chinatown, West End, Yaletown and
Granville Island. A separate inset map of the central downtown area
highlights hotels, sites, SKYTRAIN stations, shopping, government
and educational sites and the cruise ship terminal, where cruises
to Alaska start and end. A map of the Vancouver area extends from
the southern suburb of Richmond to North and West Vancouver, from
Burnaby to Sea Island, including the Vancouver International
Airport. All major highways and thoroughfares are depicted along
with exit numbers and sites. An inset of the University of BC
campus is included as well as an inset of downtown Victoria, BC.
Our pocket size map of Vancouver is laminated for durability and
