If getting up close and personal with mother nature is your idea of the perfect day out, ocean kayaking is one of the most popular things to do in Vancouver, and Deep Cove is one of the best and safest places to do it in Canada.

Dim Sum in China Town

Image
The great thing about sightseeing in Vancouver is it’s easy to knock off multiple things in one visit to any of its unique neighborhoods. Vancouver’s Chinatown is one of the oldest in Canada and the largest. Perched on the edge of the Downtown Financial District and Gastown, Chinatown offers up an array of funky shops, inexpensive markets, and of course, the best Dim Sum restaurants in town. Sunday is the busiest day for Dim Sum, but also the best with multi-generational families sitting down and chatting about the week’s events.

Update your Instagram feed at Nicolau Lisboa

resembles a London cafeteria 
with some Lx Factory touches. 
And the menu has a bit of
 everything trendy, such as
pancakes (the stars of the
 house), tapiocas, eggs benedict,
smoothies or yoghurt with
 granola. Go ahead and post that
#nomnomnom hashtag. Don’t miss: Nicolau’s pancakes (with mascarpone and strawberries): tall, sweet, flavored. Nailed it!
