Greater Vancouver at a Glance
Located between the Pacific Ocean and the Coast Mountain range, Vancouver's popularity
and consequent growth has lead it to envelope several communities that are now
collectively known as Greater Vancouver. While all of the municipalities are located
within close proximity of each other, they each offer a variety of distinct attractions.
North Vancouver is home
to the Capilano
Suspension Bridge, which spans a tree-filled gorge and leads to an enchanting,
forested garden. Other areas, such as West
Vancouver, offer distinct communities rich with unique boutiques, restaurants
and bars. Both North and West Vancouver are reached via the historic Lion's
Gate Bridge, linking with Vancouver's downtown. White
Rock, to Vancouver's southeast, is a renowned weekend retreat destination.
Or venture east to Surrey, the 'City
of Parks', with a total of 2,300 hectares (5,400 acres) of green space. The Vancouver
International Airport is located in Richmond,
just south of Vancouver proper.
