Vancouver, day by day
Vancouver puts mountains, forest and sea within a bus ride of downtown: the Stanley Park seawall, a food market on an island, the great Northwest Coast collections at UBC and a suspension bridge and gondola on the North Shore. Start with three days that use the water as much as the streets, with the opening rules that matter in 2026.
