Vancouver
Vancouver is a city with magic
and full of contradictions. It is a multi-cultural city and a gateway to the Pacific Ocean. It is full of cosmopolitan restaurants, trendy boutiques and a city where you can sail and ski in the same day. The first European to discover this region was the Captain George Vancouver. One of the most beautiful areas of Vancouver is Gastown, there are stunning Victorian buildings, antique shops, art galleries and a modern cruise ship terminal. There are several neighborhoods that show how multi-cultural Vancouver is such as Little Italy, Greektown, Japantown, Chinatown and Koreatown. In downtown stands the Harbour Centre, a skyscraper with a Lookout Tower with its 360 degree views, and the Stanley Park with its 100 acres. Vancouver is located in the Canadian province of British Columbia. As a day trip to visit Vancouver Island is a great suggestion. Vancouver is considered one of the most beautiful cities in North America. Hotels in Vancouver
