Top 10 Things to do in Northeast False Creek, Canada

September 19, 2021 Janean Rudisill

Vancouver was founded as “Gastown” by an Englishman with a penchant for beer and storytelling. Today Gastown is a historic section of the Canadian metropolis, and the lively pubs still reflect the area’s former status as a sort of community drinking center. The city’s forests, grand parks, and impressive suspension bridge beckon travelers to explore them, as do the city’s shops and museums. Relive the glory of the 2010 Winter Games with visits to Olympic venues and the marvelous Olympic Cauldron.

We were fortunate enough to attend the HSBC World Series of Rugby at the BC Place Stadium. The event was outstanding and a pleasant mixture of sport and festival. It was like attending the World Cup and Mardi Gras in one weekend.

Nice exhibition charting the history of sport in British Columbia and the many names, some more famous than others, to hail from the area. As a British fan it was interesting to see the section celebrating the Vancouver Whitecaps title win in the '70s, with plenty of players who graced the Football League. If you're interested in the 2010 Winter Olympics or former IndyCar drive Greg Moore then definitely don't miss this. The tribute to Moore in particularly is very nice for any motor racing fan.

I recently spent 7 nights at the J.W. Parq Vancouver, I can truly say without hesitation that my experience from prior to arriving at the Hotel to my check out was beyond any expectation I had imagined. Staff were friendly and competent, rooms and amenities well maintained and during COVID-19 well sanitized. Joon Lee from the front desk really made the 7 days incredible, any concern or question we had he thoroughly answered with thoughtful responses, seeing his passion and work ethic for what he does in such turbulent times made the entire experience sensational. Thank you Joon. Needless to say, we will definitely be returning to the Parq as it has become my favourite luxury hotel within Canada. - Sebastian
