Capilano Suspension Bridge Park

4.6/5 · 407 review

Highlights:
Built a century ago by native aboriginals with hemp ropes and thick wooden planks, the footbridge at Capilano Suspension Bridge and Park hangs high in mid-air over the swift rapids of the Capilano River. The bridge swings and gives out a human-like cackling sound when winds blow across the valley, hence its nickname "Laughing Bridge". The suspension bridge straddles the Capilano River and swathes of leafy forest. Walking on the bridge, one is surrounded by nature, taking in not only the beautiful woodland, but also the snow peaks in the distance and the nearby ravine. If fortunate enough, one could also spot a splendid rainbow due to the vapor from the river.

Highlights:
Canada Place is well-known as a landmark symbol of Vancouver. It was the Canada Pavilion of the 1986 World Expo. The entire building is made of five fiberglass white sails as a giant tent, which is very eye-catching. As an important cruise terminal on the southern coast of British Columbia, the giant cruise ships moored on its side are also particularly eye-catching. The entire Canada Place is deep into the sea, and the surrounding water and sky are full of beauty. 1. Flyover Canada FlyoverCanada is the only 4D simulation flight entertainment project in Canada. The huge movie screen stands in the place where Canada Plaza goes deep into the bay, spanning from the east coast to the west coast, taking you across the country. During the "flight", the seat will tilt and change the angle, and you can feel the water mist on your face, which is novel and exciting, and mobilizes all your senses. 2. Jack Poole Plaza, as the main venue for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics, this beautiful waterfront space has become a permanent place for the Olympic brazier, and the torch will be lit at special moments. From the plaza, you can see Ballard Bay against the backdrop of distant mountains, and you can also visit public artworks and historic plaques along the coastline walking trail in the west wing of the convention center. In the underground pedestrian passage between the east and west wings of the conference building, there are Olympic medals, Olympic torches and podiums displayed, and you can stroll through it to relive the wonderful pictures of the 2010 Winter Olympics.
