The centrepiece of Chinatown. Completed in 1986 in time for Expo, there are two sides to the garden - Half pay entry, half free entry. Both a tranquil oasis weathering the rapid change and development of the city. Valued highly by both longterm and recent Chinatown residents.

Dive bar that’s like the older brothers basement suite in an 80’s movie. When not lounging on the well worn couches, get to know total strangers in a game of pool or darts. If the front door is locked enter through the alley. Pleasant soundtrack.

Chinatown’s club, opened above the well known sneaker shop “Livestock”. Regular club nights and interesting guests (Early shows), student crowd and one of the best sound systems in the city. Where Drake goes when in town.

One of our favourite things to do on a rainy day in Vancouver. Bloedel is a domed tropical floral conservatory and aviary built in 1966 at the top of Queen Elizabeth Park. The perfect place to take a coffee and have a little vacation from the rain.

VanDusen is a 55 acre garden that moves through different environments with trails, water features and various artwork. Alternatively to Bloedel, this is a beautiful place to go for a walk or take a picnic on a nice day. It’s open year-round and large enough that you shouldn’t have to fight any crowds. It’s also well know for its holiday display.

Every restaurant list needs a cheap late night pizza joint. Open late every night of the week and known for their beef and blue cheese pizza, but they’re all great. Even better with one of their sauces.
