Vancouver was founded as “Gastown” by an Englishman with a penchant for beer and storytelling. Today Gastown is a historic section of the Canadian metropolis, and the lively pubs still reflect the area’s former status as a sort of community drinking center. The city’s forests, grand parks, and impressive suspension bridge beckon travelers to explore them, as do the city’s shops and museums. Relive the glory of the 2010 Winter Games with visits to Olympic venues and the marvelous Olympic Cauldron.

Housed in Vancouver's former city morgue, this museum displays the history of crime and law enforcement in Vancouver. Exhibits include historical crimes, tools for scientific (forensic) investigation and more.
It is very interesting and educational. I live here and found out things that I never knew about. Worth while going to and if you have the time, take in a walking tour. That one walking tour was an eye opener. I like to go on the other walking tours however someday.
