Large all purpose convention center to host cruise ships that sail to Alaska and Pacific Northwest.nnMany activities can be found here. Attractions information are available at numerous desks within the complex, and attractions launched here via myriad of shuttle buses. Restaurants and shops abound.nnIt is a busy and active spot on the waterfront for tourists and locals to enjoy the beauty of a city by the bay.
Canada Place is one of those spots in Vancouver that instantly makes you pause and take it all in. With its iconic white sail design against the waterfront, it’s as photogenic as it gets. The promenade gives you sweeping views of the harbor, the North Shore mountains, and the constant movement of seaplanes taking off — a scene that feels uniquely Vancouver. It’s especially beautiful around sunset when the city lights start to glow and the mountains fade into silhouettes.nnWalking along the pier feels calm yet vibrant, with locals jogging, tourists snapping photos, and cruise ships occasionally docked nearby. The atmosphere is lively without being overwhelming, and the fresh sea breeze adds to the charm. Inside, there’s a mix of exhibitions and cafés, but honestly, the real magic is outside.nnTip: Go in the late afternoon for the best light and fewer crowds. If you’re into photography, bring a wide-angle lens to capture both the sails and the skyline. And don’t skip the “Canadian Trail” along the west promenade — it’s a short but scenic walk that tells a story about the country.nnCanada Place may be touristy, but it’s also the kind of place that reminds you why Vancouver is loved for its balance of city and nature.
A beautiful building and a must see place when visiting Vancouver. There is a hotel, convention center and other things but we go there for the beautiful views. There is a cruise ship terminal and you might see a ship docked there. You can see north and west Vancouver. There is port nearby that you can see ships being unloaded. There are benches around and the walk is beautiful by the water. The views of the city during daylight and at night are amazing. There are restaurants if you need to eat.
I was walking in the downtown area and spotted this area by accident. This place is located by the bay with an amazing view. There are many great restaurants and two big ships sitting right by the harbor.nnMany tourists eat shipping and dining here mostly because the transportation is very convenient with lots of bus stops, train stations, and harbor crossings at the same location.nnI was lucky that I came here this time because I managed to get my first compass key holder and charged 20 CAD.nThere is a mandatory deposit of 6 when you want to buy a new card. I decided to bring it home as a souvenir so I don't have to come here again for a refund. It's cheaper to use Compass stored value to pay for the bus or skytrain. It saves me a lot of money.
Good place to visit with family, kids. A lot of option for food by sitting or standing.nPaid Street parking. Weekends too busy but good to go.nEnjoy sunshine near water, beautiful view.nYou can rent cycle, scooters for more fun.
