Additional Information
Introduction
The Lions Gate Bridge, aka First Narrows Bridge, in Canada is a suspension bridge which crosses over the Burrard Inlet and connects the city of Vancouver to the municipalities on the North Shore. Its name, “Lions Gate,” was given to the bridge because it reflects “The Lions," a pair of mountain peaks north of Vancouver. Plans for the bridge were first established in 1890, but construction did not begin until March 1937. Today, the bridge has earned its place as a National Historic Site of Canada, and is even featured in many films, including Final Destination 5, Tron:Legacy and DaVinci’s Inquest.

I enjoy driving over this bridge. Though the lions are rather hard to spot so walking is much better.
The most beautiful bridge all over the mainland despite the awful traffic
Important bridge and access to the west north Vancouver in Stanley Park and way to some other parks.
Lions Gate Bridge is one of the most treasured historical landmarks of Vancouver. The suspension bridge connects downtown Vancouver city with its mountain-filled sibling - North Vancouver and is a piece of true architecture art. The view of the Lions Gate Bridge from both under - at the Seawall trail and above - at Prospect point are equally as gorgeous and breathtaking. The bridge is constructed with reversible lanes which accommodates for traffic patterns. The drive across the bridge offers an absolutely beautiful view of the ocean and the two cities.
