Vancouver Flight Guide
Vancouver is a perfect fusion of urban culture and stunning elegance. Despite being a modern metropolis, Vancouver is only moments away from breathtaking natural surroundings. Locals have a great sense for hospitality which makes every stay a pleasant experience. Vancouver’s history is dominated by European immigrants which gives it a multicultural touch. The impressive combination of mountains and ocean give the city a meditative character and plenty of time should be allowed for strolls around the harbour area.
The main attractions of Vancouver are located in the city centre and can be explored by foot. Downtown Vancouver is known for unusual shops and well reputed restaurants.
Famous for its unique and beautiful architecture is Chinatown, with its Ming style buildings and Asian flair. The symbol of Vancouver is an old steam clock which can be found in Gastown, another historic district. Influenced by modern architecture is Yaletown which has an exciting nightlife and upscale shops. Students and backpackers usually go to the pubs around the University of British Columbia, a rather alternative and young area.
Visitors should definitely take a walk around greater Vancouver to surround themselves with
untouched nature and a unique wildlife.
The best time to visit depends on individual wishes. The winter is a perfect time for a budget-conscious trip as hotel prices are low. Springtime promises sunshine and a number of open-air events. The best time for musical highlights and film events is the summer with high season prices. Flights to Vancouver leave from all major Australian airports, usually with Qantas and Air Canada. The shortest flight duration is approximately 17 hours and connections are fairly convenient.
