Things to do in Vancouver, Canada: The Best Fun Activities & Games

February 3, 2022 Nobuko Falco

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.

I recently spent 7 nights at the J.W. Parq Vancouver, I can truly say without hesitation that my experience from prior to arriving at the Hotel to my check out was beyond any expectation I had imagined. Staff were friendly and competent, rooms and amenities well maintained and during COVID-19 well sanitized. Joon Lee from the front desk really made the 7 days incredible, any concern or question we had he thoroughly answered with thoughtful responses, seeing his passion and work ethic for what he does in such turbulent times made the entire experience sensational. Thank you Joon. Needless to say, we will definitely be returning to the Parq as it has become my favourite luxury hotel within Canada. - Sebastian
