Main Street is a long street in Vancouver, parallel to Granville Street and Oak Street. Unlike Granville, Oak, etc., the streets are narrow and the houses are dense, and the second-hand goods shops on the roadside have increased significantly. There are Still Fabulous under Vancouver Maternity and Child Hospital, Thrift Store under YWCA, and Beansprouts, a second-hand children&#39;s book toy store. In addition, many restaurants have set up branches on Main Street, such as Rocky Mountain Flatbread and meeT on Main.

Natural scenery

Walking in Stanley Park gives me a peaceful experience in Vancouver. The reflection of the lake is stunning, and the trees and lake there create a peaceful environment for you to relax and enjoy your day. I also love the biodiversity there. I saw cute animals, like ducks and birds. If you keep walking, you can reach Stanley Park Seawall to enjoy the beautiful sunset and cozy breeze from the ocean.

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. . .
