2025 Greater Vancouver Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

I am so lucky and grateful to have the chance to stay at Vancouver for 10 days during my time here in Canada. In these 10 days, my cousin took me to different places, and here I’ll share some of my favorite spots in Vancouver. 🏞️Stanley Park Stanley Park is really one of the most beautiful parks in Vancouver. There are many beautiful creatures like little ducks residing there. If you keep walking, you will reach the ocean and have a nice sunset view. I see many people jogging and biking there. You can really feel the liveliness from this place. 📍Vancouver, BC V6G 1Z4, Canada 🌃Vancouver Downtown At the downtown, you can see the age old steamed clock. My favorite restaurant there is The Old Spaghetti Factory🍝The price is reasonable and not pricy in the central part of Vancouver where everything is somewhat a little bit more expensive. 🏮China Town🪭 Vancouver is a city with Asian immigrants, so in China Town, you can see a lot of historical Chinese buildings and get the taste of the eastern aesthetic. 🚉Vancouver Sky Train Vancouver Sky Train is an affordable way to move around in the city. I like the design of it and on the Sky Train you can see many different views of Vancouver. 🐠Steveston Fisherman’s Wharf, Richmond🐟 This is a place where you can enjoy the breeze of the sea from the Pacific Ocean. At around 4p.m. in winter time, the sunset is beautiful to witness here🌅Also, you should definitely have the classy fish and chips here. The fish is fresh and crispy, and it’s nice to eat it with the costal view and sunset. 📍3800 Bayview St, Richmond, BC V7E 6K7, Canada 🌊Rocky Point Park You have to go to Rocky Point Ice Cream🍦if you visit here. See how the dog wants the ice cream so bad? Don’t worry, they even make ice cream for dogs to eat!🐾At the park, you can walk along the coast but also enjoy walking in the forest. It’s a nice and relaxing place to go to. 📍2800 Murray St, Port Moody, BC V3H 1X2, Canada 🌲Kushiro Park, Burnaby This park is named after the sister city Kushiro in Japan, so when you visit there, you can see some traditional wood carving statue of Japan. The forest is very beautiful with gigantic trees for you to enjoy and relax. The weather there is cozy, not too hot and not too cold, so you can have a relaxing walk there. 📍464 Centennial Way, Burnaby, BC V5A 1G9, Canada Vancouver is really one of the most cozy places to live in the world. The temperature and the humidity is both at the right spot. The city is mixed with modernness and nature, so you still can feel relaxed in this big city. I hope you have fun in these places I share with you. I always love nature and Vancouver has mountains, forest, and nature🥰so I really love this place a lot. #nature #naturelover #naturelover #familytrip #deliciousfood #vancouvertravel #britishcolumbia #canada #canadatravel #canadatrip

#JanuaryGoodplace2025 #Calgary #calgary #Apa Coast Calgary Downtown Hotel & Suites by APA First of all, I want to say that this hotel and its staff are very friendly and welcoming. As someone who has worked in the industry and managed two front desks for a large company, I was very impressed with the entire hotel. From check-in to extended stay and check-out it was a complete pleasure. The hotel is pet friendly and has a small cafeteria with very reasonable prices. The room had a well equipped kitchenette, very comfortable bed and a pull out sofa. Management and owners should be proud of this gem in Calgary and should use it as a model for extended stay properties. Coffee is always available and piping hot. Keep up the good work and thank you for giving me a 10/10 stay #Canada #coast #hotelrecommendation

I recommend wearing comfortable shoes! #VancouverTravel #Vancouver #ubc #TravelSickness #MemorableTravel #BotanicalGarden #SafeTravel

Canada is full of scenery! My favourite part to visit and explore is definitely the west side of the country. Hikes like St. Mark's Summit is truly spectacular! I mean, just look at it! The hike only takes two hours to complete (4 hours round trip) and you will be rewarded with glorious views. If you've never hiked before, then make sure you bring snacks, water, electrolytes, flashlight and a fully charged phone with a battery pack! Safety always comes first! #vancouver #canada #rockymountains #stmarksummit #westerncanada

Recently, while exploring various cafes in Vancouver, I stumbled upon a delightful bakery called Sweet Thea. Located near my favorite matcha latte spot, I had been meaning to visit for a while and finally made the trip. To my surprise, this bakery makes and bakes all their cakes and bread in-house, making it a true gem for baked goods lovers. Since I had just finished lunch, I decided to take some treats home to enjoy. The cake was perfectly balanced—not overly sweet—and absolutely delicious. I also picked up a pistachio raspberry pastry, which was equally delightful 😋. It seems like I’ll need to visit multiple times to try everything they offer 😂. If you’re on the hunt for a bakery cafe that serves amazing cakes, bread, and coffee, Sweet Thea is definitely worth checking out!

#Overseas travel At the top of Burnaby Mountain, there is SFU (Simon Fraser University), and if you turn left at the entrance to the university, there is a road that goes up to Burnaby Mountain Park. As you go up the road, your ears may feel a little stuffy because of the high altitude, but once you get there, you are surprised by the view of all of Vancouver, and the already good air feels even clearer. 😅 After parking in the free parking lot and taking a pleasant walk, there are restaurants, cafes, benches and tables for picnicking, and it is a park that is great for a walk with large wooden sculptures or donated benches~^^ Be sure to stop by and enjoy the natural observatory🎈#Vancouver places to visit #Vancouver travel #Vancouver parks #Vancouver Burnaby

#June Travel Support Fund There are many places to visit in Vancouver, including Kitsilano Beach, but one of them is Wreck Beach, which is located in Pacific Spirit Regional Park on the UBC campus. If you go down the forest path along the entrance to the park, you will find a quiet and secluded Wreck Beach. Wreck Beach is located on one side of the university campus, so there are no restaurants around, but the shady forest path down from the entrance is pretty, and it is quieter and more attractive than Kitsilano Beach. I like to quietly gaze at the water, so I recommend eating or drinking coffee around Kitsilano, taking a walk, and resting.^^!! #Vancouver travel #Places to visit in Vancouver #Vancouver water play #Vancouver park

Port Moody is one of the most picturesque neighborhoods in Vancouver, and personally, it's my second favorite after West Vancouver. The area has a serene and unique vibe, with quaint shops, a small museum, cafes, pizza spots, and various other eateries that make it a hotspot💕. Among them, this bakery, housed in a cheerful yellow building, stands out for its delicious baked goods offered at reasonable prices. If you visit this neighborhood, make sure to stop by for some bread and coffee😋.

Vancouver has that rare magic where glass towers reflect mountain peaks and every corner invites you to slow down and enjoy the view. From snow-dusted summits to oceanfront paths, this west coast gem feels both modern and wild. Wander the trendy streets of Yaletown, filled with chic cafés and waterfront patios. Then switch gears and get lost among the ancient trees of Pacific Spirit Regional Park or watch seaplanes land in Coal Harbour. The Museum of Anthropology gives a powerful look into Indigenous heritage, while the city’s art scene thrives in spots like Mount Pleasant. Craving a local bite? Try a food truck serving Korean tacos or freshly caught salmon. And for the best photo ops, head up to Queen Elizabeth Park, especially golden hour! Good to Know: Rent a bike and cruise the city’s extensive cycling paths Vancouver is proudly eco-conscious, reusable bottles and totes are the norm Spring and autumn are perfect if you prefer fewer crowds and mild weather Take a day trip to Whistler, Victoria, or the nearby wineries in the Fraser Valley #vancouver

Want to take a trip to Vancouver that's away from the hustle and bustle and combines cultural atmosphere and natural scenery? The University of British Columbia (UBC) is definitely a stop not to be missed. This top Canadian university is not just a university, but also a secret town in the forest. It is suitable for a half-day to one-day in-depth tour and is loved by families, literary youths, and nature-loving travelers. 🌿 Suggested itinerary (recommended 4–6 hours) 10:00｜Arrival on campus → UBC Welcome Centre Take the 99 B-Line or bus number 4 from downtown Vancouver, which is about a 40-minute ride. It is recommended that you first go to the Welcome Centre to get a campus map and tourist information. Next to it is the Chan Centre (Concert Hall), which has beautiful architecture and is worth stopping by. 10:30｜Museum of Anthropology (MOA) One of the must-visit landmarks! The large collection of West Coast Aboriginal totems and handicrafts is the best starting point for understanding local culture. The museum's high-ceiling space displays huge totem poles and wooden sculptures, which are both spectacular and educational. Opening hours: 10:00-17:00 (extended to 21:00 on Tuesdays) Tickets: Adults $18 (free on Tuesdays from 5-9pm) 12:00｜Main Mall Stroll + Lunch Take a stroll along the main street, Main Mall, from MOA to experience the open and natural atmosphere of the university.

Landmarks along the way: Irving K. Barber Library (modern building with wavy glass curtain wall) The Clock Tower: Gothic-style building, remains of the original campus in 1925 14:30｜UBC Rose Garden Located on the southwest side of the campus, close to Marine Drive and facing English Bay, this rose garden is one of Vancouver's most famous.

Best flowering period: June to September (peak in July) 15:00｜Asian Centre Near the intersection of Main Mall and University Boulevard, the iconic building was designed by Japanese architect Toshihiko Kimura, integrating Eastern and Western elements. The "Meditation Pond" in the central square was inspired by the dry landscape of Ryoan-ji Temple in Kyoto. The library has a large collection of Chinese, Japanese and Korean literature. 16:00｜Explore the sunset beach at Wreck Beach A 15-minute walk from the west end of campus is the legendary Wreck Beach, Canada’s famous nude beach. Although there are 400 steps to climb, the scenery is worth it. In the evening, the setting sun shines on the sea, which is absolutely beautiful and therapeutic. If time permits, you may also want to check out the following other attractions on campus that are worth visiting: UBC Botanical Garden or Nitobe Japanese Garden If you love plants and quiet spaces, the UBC Botanical Garden is a good choice for relaxation; if you like the oriental Zen style, the Japanese garden Nitobe Garden is a small and beautiful spiritual secret place, with spring cherry blossoms and autumn maples each having their own charm. UBC Bookstore It is a fairly large shop where you can buy university souvenirs, postcards, etc. 📌 Tips and Strategies The campus mainly moves around on foot, so it is recommended to wear comfortable sports shoes.

I've passed this church many times over the years, but each time it was just a quick glance without stopping to appreciate it. Today, as I passed St. John's Shaughnessy Anglican Church again, I was deeply attracted by the incredibly vibrant rhododendrons. I couldn't resist turning into the nearby street and getting out of the car to admire its architectural and horticultural beauty. With its unique Art Deco architecture and meticulously maintained gardens, this church stands out in Vancouver's Shaughnessy neighborhood. I. Historical Background and Architectural Features 1. Founding Time: This is a century-old church with a story. It was founded in 1925 as part of the residence of Adam de Pencier, Bishop of the Diocese of New Westminster. His wife started a Sunday school in the kitchen of the residence, which later developed into a church. In 1949, construction began on the current building, which was completed on June 18, 1950, as a memorial church dedicated to the Vancouver men and women who served the country in World War II. 2. Architectural Design: Designed by renowned Vancouver architect George Lister Thornton Sharp, the church features a late Art Deco style and is one of the few modern Art Deco buildings on Vancouver's heritage list, classified as a Grade C heritage building. The exterior walls are made of gray stone, with simple and smooth lines, and the geometric aesthetics characteristic of Art Deco. The facade design is understated yet dignified, complementing the atmosphere of the surrounding upscale residential area. 3. Spatial Layout: The church occupies a large area, with the main building in a rectangular shape, complemented by a spacious atrium and side wing spaces. The overall layout is integrated with the surrounding gardens, creating an open and tranquil atmosphere. The unique window design, with large stained-glass windows on the exterior, is not only decorative but also introduces soft light into the interior space, enhancing the warmth of the building. 4. Surrounding Environment: The church is located at the intersection of Granville Street and Nanton Avenue, in the heart of the Shaughnessy neighborhood. This area is known for its wide streets, towering trees, and elegant residences, and the church's architecture serves as a visual focal point for the community. II. Gardens and Horticulture 1. Garden Size and Layout: The gardens of St. John's Church cover a considerable area, surrounding the main body of the church and divided into front, side, and back yard areas. The garden design focuses on the combination of function and aesthetics, providing a resting space for visitors and serving as a "green extension" of the building. The garden layout is symmetrical and well-defined, combining the sophistication of an English garden with the natural style of the West Coast, showcasing the maintenance level of a professional gardening team. 2. Plants and Landscape Features: The garden is planted with a variety of seasonal flowers (such as cherry blossoms, roses, hydrangeas, and azaleas), combined with evergreen shrubs (such as holly and privet), ensuring color in all seasons. The flower beds are exquisitely designed with neat borders. The lawn in the front yard is wide and flat, with well-trimmed edges, making it suitable for small outdoor activities. Stone or gravel paths are laid in the garden, winding through the flower beds, guiding visitors to stroll and adding a sense of exploration. III. Travel Tips: Today's impromptu visit, although I was unable to visit inside, the external environment is so beautiful. Whether it is in the season of blooming spring flowers or the late autumn when maple leaves are falling, it exudes a quiet and refined charm, complementing the elegant atmosphere of the Shaughnessy community. The church is like a small manor, both solemn and friendly. The church's Art Deco facade and the seasonal colors of the garden are ideal subjects for photography enthusiasts, especially when the light is soft in the morning, the details of the architecture and flowers are more vivid. The paths and shady corners in the garden are suitable for shooting portraits or still life, with a clean and layered background. The church and gardens are open to the public, and visitors are free to enjoy the external environment, especially during non-worship hours. There are parking spaces around the church, and there are bus stops near Granville Street, which can be reached by walking or a short bus ride. The streets next to the church are simply a fairyland, so photogenic and so easy to shoot! 🤩

Xishiding Park is like an emerald green gem, shining amid the prosperity and bustle of the city. The fresh air, swaying trees, and bursts of floral fragrance make people forget the worries of life in an instant. Outside this concrete jungle, old people sit leisurely on benches, talking and laughing, as if life is more leisurely in the embrace of nature. Every flower and every tree in the park has a dreamlike beauty. At the moment when the morning sun shines, everything wakes up, as if nature is gently calling every passerby to feel the vitality and hope. Tour tips: Bring a book or a pot of tea, sit on a bench and enjoy the tranquility of this oasis #Hastings Park #CommunityGreening #NaturalBeauty #AprilGoodDestinations2025

| A Spring Fairytale on Yukon Street. On Vancouver's spring map, 7311 Yukon Street is a destination worth highlighting. Like an unsigned love letter hidden at the edge of Winona Park, it writes Vancouver's romantic narrative with pink and white petals and the warmth of everyday life. Today's Location: 📍 7311 Yukon Street (Winona Park) 🌸 Cherry Blossom Density: ★★★★☆ (Scattered distribution, offering both privacy and pleasant surprises) 📸 Photo Rating: ★★★★★ (Red walls + cherry blossoms + lawn + pets + blue sky = cinematic composition) The red brick apartment walls intertwine with the soft pink cherry blossoms in the sunlight, with the rough brick texture making the petals appear even more delicate. The gnarled branches of old trees and the upright silhouettes of new ones create a temporal overlay, as if you can hear time whispering through the growth rings. Corgis bouncing in the shade, Golden Retrievers catching frisbees in slow motion, Shiba Inus intently sniffing the flowers - the dogs here are natural atmosphere creators, adding vibrant dynamic beauty to every frame. Without a pet of my own, I can only try to sneak into photos with other people's dogs 🐶🤭. The vast green lawn extending from Winona Park serves as a natural backdrop for this cherry blossom feast. Spread a plaid picnic blanket, sip matcha latte under the shower of petals, and watch kites glide over the cherry blossom treetops - this is Vancouver's exclusive "slow living ritual."

Bowen Island is a charming island located northwest of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, just a 20-minute ferry ride from downtown Vancouver. Covering an area of approximately 52 square kilometers, the island is known for its beautiful natural scenery and tranquil lifestyle. Surrounded by the blue waters of Howe Sound, Bowen Island boasts lush temperate rainforests, winding mountain trails, and numerous beaches. I highly recommend visiting Roger Curtis Point on the southwest end of the island, which is not only a great spot for watching sunsets but also features a historic lighthouse built in 1915. Here, you can admire spectacular granite cliffs and often see seals playing offshore. The highest point on the island is Mount Gardner, with an elevation of 719 meters, making it a popular destination for hikers. From the summit, you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of Howe Sound and Vancouver. On the northeast end of the island, Hood Point offers the best vantage point for viewing the Vancouver skyline, while Point Cowan on the southeast side is known for its secluded bays, ideal for kayaking and observing marine life. The island is home to about 3,700 permanent residents, many of whom commute to Vancouver for work. Snug Cove is the main commercial and social hub of the island, featuring restaurants, cafes, art galleries, and boutique shops. Bowen Island has a vibrant arts scene, attracting many artists who have set up their studios here. Outdoor activities on the island are diverse and plentiful, including hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, and kayaking. Killarney Lake is one of the most popular hiking destinations on the island, with scenic trails around the lake that are perfect for family outings. Visitors can stroll along the coastline between various points, enjoying the different geological features and marine views. Bowen Island is known for its excellent ecological conservation, providing a habitat for various wildlife species, including black-tailed deer, sea lions, and numerous bird species. The island also retains much of its original forest, offering visitors a great opportunity to connect with nature. For Vancouver residents and tourists looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, Bowen Island is an ideal weekend getaway. It maintains the pristine charm of a small island while offering modern conveniences, embodying a lifestyle of harmony between humans and nature.

Carey Centre offers quality but basic accommodations, located at Carey Theological College affiliated with UBC. The rooms are essentially large dormitories with their own bathrooms. We found our room comfortable and clean. There is a TV and a refrigerator. The staff are very friendly and go out of their way to ensure we have a pleasant stay. We also enjoyed a complimentary hot breakfast. There are many restaurants nearby, and it is convenient to get to other parts of Vancouver. Carey Centre is great value for money.

📍5 Lonsdale Ave, North Vancouver, BC V7M 2E4 Canada, "Anatoli Souvlaki" Business hours: Daily 11:30 AM - 10:00 PM (Friday, Saturday until 11:00 PM) Souvlaki is a popular Greek dish, which can be thought of as skewered grilled meat. It is located on the way to the North Vancouver waterfront, with other restaurants lined up on both sides. The weather was nice that day, so we dined outside. We ordered the Calamari Dinner and Souvlaki Dinner (Lamb) based on the staff's recommendation. The dishes included vegetables, rice, potatoes, and either fried squid or lamb skewers, both of which were quite good. Personally, I found the fried squid to be a bit tastier. It was a great dinner that paired well with a glass of beer:)) Overall, the flavors were well-balanced and I think it would suit the tastes of Koreans without any major issues. The prices are reasonable, and it's worth trying if you want to experience something new. While it's not an entirely new taste, it was an experience with a subtle novelty within familiar flavors:) Additionally, there is a restroom inside, which was clean and nice. The interior had a somewhat different feel, perhaps more Greek, and the atmosphere seemed very pleasant for dining:)
