Stanley Park: spend a day in Stanley Park. ...

  • spend a day in Stanley Park. You can bike, rollerblade, jog along the sea wall. There are driveways for cars as well, but unless you absolutely can not be part with your four-wheel friend, leave it behind.

    Vancouver is famous not only for its scenary. Everywhere you go, people are very nice and friendly. Motorists will patiently wait behind
    you at intersections(at least in my experience)
    while you day dream and forget to notice the light has just turned green.

    visit Stanley Park. If I lived in Vancouver, I would probably go to Stanley Park all the time. I would move to the park...I'd be known as the wild man that lives in Stanley Park :)
    I'm exaggerating. S.P. has trails for hiking, lakes, an aquarium, and so on.... And, people walk, jog, bike, rollerblade on the seawall which surrounds the park. And, don't forget the beaches.

    The picture is of me standing inside of Hollow Tree in S.P. You can either drive or hike to the tree.

  • Wandering through the trails in Stanley Park is certainly an activity that should be experienced when visiting Vancouver.

    When I am away from Vancouver I miss the sound and the smell of the sea...as soon as I arrive back I am sitting on a bench on the seawall with my eyes closed listening to the waves..

    There you will find a country park in the middle of the big city. There is plenty to do there or just take a stroll to get away from it all.

    Check out the totem poles!

    Stanley Park is amazing. So is North Vancouver with Grouse Mountain. Vancouver is a really natural and beautiful city. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes to do outdoor activities (like me). There are many interesting surrounding areas, such as Victoria and Tofino.

    So far, I really enjoyed a trip I took with my school agency (www.eslvancouver.com). We went on a picnic in Stanley Park. That is what is so amazing about the city. One second you are in the city, the next second you can be in nature. I really enjoyed the first meeting with so many good friends.

    go to Stanley Park and walk or rollerblade around the Seawall, take the Skyride up to Grouse Mountain, cross the Capilano Suspension Bridge, do some shopping in Granville Island and Robson Street (but buy your souvenirs in the dollar stores -- they're way cheaper!).

    Oh the scenery.. The picture below was taken at the Stanley Park seawall with the downtown Vancouver skyline at the background. More info and pics on Stanley park are in my travelogue.

    This picture is of an area not far from the bridge and at the start of Stanley Park. ( Stanley Park is a huge park that has been untouched and kept natural with huge old trees, ponds,wild ducks, geese etc. 5 miles of walking and bike trails)( MUCH OF IT ON THE OCEAN FRONT.) I missed my turn off here to go to the Sylvia Hotel which is close. I had to cross the bridge and then return to take my street to the Hotel.
