Best Things to Do

Night view

iQOO🐮

Walking into Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, I was instantly enveloped by towering ancient trees and refreshing air. My palms were slightly sweaty as I wobbled across the high suspension bridge, but the view of the stream below and the snow-capped mountains in the distance was truly soothing! The treetop walkway was particularly fun, like strolling through the forest mid-air. The staff were very welcoming and even helped me take commemorative photos. However, during peak season, the bridge is often overcrowded with tourists, making it slow and congested, like a traffic jam. The maple cookies in the souvenir shop were surprisingly delicious, and I took a few boxes home. It&#39;s perfect for those who enjoy nature, but it might be a bit challenging if you&#39;re afraid of heights.

Stanley Park

Natural scenery

I rented a bike in Stanley Park and cycled along the seawall. The ocean breeze felt so liberating! Along the way, I&#39;d often see seals basking in the sun and passersby on scooters, and the vibrant atmosphere of life washed over me. The totem pole area was even more captivating than I&#39;d imagined, its wooden carvings gleaming with a primitive beauty in the sunlight. While resting at Third Beach, watching the sunset paint the sea a golden red, my worries instantly vanished. The park is so vast that it&#39;s impossible to explore it all in a day, and I almost got lost&mdash;but these serendipitous discoveries of hidden paths were a real treat. Nature and urban life are perfectly balanced here.

nice weather, nice trip! the snow is already sufficient in the area! I like the simplicity and convenience of Canada! people are always happy ~

Canada Place

Strolling beneath the white sail-shaped roofs of Canada Place, I felt like I was sailing in the harbor! The five-sail building reflecting the shimmering waters of the bay was so stunning that I couldn&#39;t help but snap a dozen photos from different angles. Walking along the wooden walkway, watching seaplanes take off and land and seagulls fight over fries was truly captivating. I also stopped by the FlyOver Canada experience center, where the 4D flight simulator over the snow-capped mountains was incredibly realistic! The evening sun painted the harbor a molten hue. I sat on the steps, munching on ice cream and watching the cruise ships arrive and depart, lost in thought for an hour. My only complaint was the strong wind that tangled my hair&mdash;but that&#39;s Vancouver&#39;s effortless charm, huh?

It is really a once-in-a-lifetime train experience. In September 2019, the weather in Canada was very suitable. It was amazing to take a train and experience the colorful mountains. The train company held a grand farewell ceremony before departure for the train at Vancouver Railway Station. This gave me a pleasant surprise. Not only did the train have Chinese service staff to introduce the scenery along the way, but there was also a food experience. Sitting on the train and looking at the scenery of the Rocky Mountains and eating Michelin meals, it really can&#39;t be described in words. The ticket price is indeed not cheap. I was a little hesitant before booking, but after the experience, I felt that the money was worth it. Also, I thought it would be boring on the train before leaving, but I didn&#39;t expect there were still a lot of activities. I couldn&#39;t stop taking pictures, especially the glass dome, which was like watching an IMAX blockbuster. Soon the wonderful day passed. The Queen&#39;s favorite train is indeed well-deserved, making my wife and I feel very noble. . .
