Capt.Dell_A380The land was originally used by Indigenous peoples for thousands of years before British Columbia was colonized by the British during the 1858 Fraser Canyon Gold Rush and was one of the first areas to be explored in the city. For many years after colonization, the future park with its abundant resources would also be home to non-Indigenous settlers.The land was later turned into Vancouver's first park when the city incorporated in 1886. It was named after Lord Stanley, 16th Earl of Derby, a British politician who had recently been appointed Governor General. It was originally known as Coal Peninsula and was set aside for military fortifications to guard the entrance to Vancouver harbour. In 1886 Vancouver city council successfully sought a lease of the park which was granted for $1 per year. In September 1888 Lord Stanley opened the park in his name.

E38***43Canada Place was a fun place to visit. There were so many things to see and do. We were lucky to be there during an anime cosplay expo. We're able to interact with cosplayers and ask them for a photo. It's definitely worth visiting!

City Park

爱好和平Burnaby Mountain Park ranks sixth among the parks in Vancouver. It is located near the famous SFU. After taking the bus to sfu, when going back, get off at the third stop and walk down the path to the Burnaby Mountain Park. . This bus stop is called westbound university Dr. The surrounding area is very deserted and pedestrians are often rarely seen. Since sfu is built on the top of the mountain, if you walk from sfu to Burnaby Mountain Park, you will wonder if you have made a mistake, because the road is almost flat and there is no feeling of going up the mountain. Just walk straight from where you got off. Go to the highest point of Burnaby Mountain Park, where there are some wood carvings, and there are many very beautiful flowers in various colors. Today is Sunday (referring to Canadian time), although not many people come to play, but it still feels a bit lively. There are more tourists from India, and the second is Korean. There are not many Chinese today. I asked a few Chinese students in sfu. They didn’t tell me about Burnaby Mountain Park. I also asked the Chinese waiter at the Japanese restaurant. If you haven't heard of it, you won't know how to swim. After getting out of the car, go to the right hand side of the traffic direction and keep walking until you see the road. It takes about ten minutes to reach the essence of Moyuan. If there is no door, any small roads around are considered doors. When you get to the best place, the woodcarving place, you will be very excited, because the scenery is so beautiful. The woodcarving is related to myths and stories, and it is also related to a city in Japan. This Japanese city is the sister city of Shige Hua Burnaby. Standing on the fence at the essence, looking down from a distance, you can see a beautiful bay. The bay passes through the mountains, and there are ships and sailboats driving in it. It is very spectacular. At this time, you realize that you are on the top of the mountain. This is a very worthwhile place to visit. It is best to drive by yourself. There is a parking lot, there is a restaurant in the essence, and there is also a wild trouble.
