The Vibe of Downtown Vancouver is great. Amazing culture, food, architecture, and urban nature.
Transit makes is super easy to get around, I we especially enjoyed walking around Granville street, Robson Square, and Yaletown.
I walked all Granville street from a block or so from false creek to waterfront. The city is views are great, although there is some homeless issue, this is just a regular thing now in big cities so you really can go unbothered,,, and then arrived to waterfront to see north Vancouver shore, the whole thing was a great experience to know the city, I eat some really good food in a ramen place I cant remember the name, but delicious!
A very beautiful city. The Stanley park is a place to see. Canada Place is very interesting. A great number of itinérants downtown Vancouver!
We loved the skyline, probable walked 22000 steps average a day and we still didn't even see everything! We will definitely be coming back for a visit and have decided to buy a condo here when we win the lottery.
We enjoyed it very much. Just enough life to be lively, beautiful scenery, enough "regular" stores to make your life easy. If you get a room downtown, you'll always be close to anything. And easy to drive when needed.
