Top three things to do in vancouver Cananda.
By Time Out editors. Compiled by Sulakshana Gupta and Anna Leach
1. Experience island life
Stroll through the lively market, browse boutiques or picnic with the pigeons on Granville Island, one of the most popular spots in
Vancouver. Beyond the market, there are enough boutiques, restaurants and little galleries to make winding through the picturesque
lanes worthwhile. This is the place to pick up delicious good like fine charcuterie or wine-soaked cherries. If all that strolling and
winding has left you in need of organic Fairtrade coffee, you can find it in friendly little
2. Challenge the Grouse Grind
Locally known as 'Mother Nature's Stairmaster', the Grouse Mountain Grind path is built largely of big wooden steps. The track takes
you 850m up the mountain and is a difficult and strenuous climb – but can be thrilling if you're into heart attack defying hikes. A
hundred thousand people try it every year, making Grouse the most hiked mountain in world. There's an easier way to get up too, the
Skyride: a giant airborne gondola that departs every 15 minutes.
3. Arm yourself with chopsticks
Thanks to its large Asian population, Vancouver is home to some of the best and cheapest sushi in North America. Freshly shucked
oysters, award-winning sushi and simply prepared seafood can be found in the Blue Water Café & Raw Bar. For a more traditional
Japanese experience, try out the freshly prepared rolls and sashimi at Okada Sushi, or pick out a lobster from the live tub. Depending
how cheap you want to go, there are sushi deals advertised all over the downtown area.

10. Canadian Pamphlet

Vancouver offers a fresh perspective on what it
means to visit a city: all of the urban adventure of a
modern metropolis with the great outdoors right on its
doorstep. It’s truly a “city of nature,” with views of
temperate rainforest and majestic peaks reflected on
glass skyscrapers; bustling markets and restaurants
paying homage to the farms and ocean that surround
Vancouver; and days that can start with wildlifewatching on the water and end with a round of
bespoke cocktails at the latest lounge, and still
include boutique shopping and a mountain hike in
between. It sparkles with sophistication and energy,
yet feels relaxed and laidback. Vancouver is quite
simply a city like no other.

11. Currency
From the Canadian pound to the Canadian dollar [edit]
In 1841, the Province of Canada adopted a new system based on the Halifax rating. The new Canadian pound was equal to four U.S
. dollars (92.88 grains gold), making one pound sterling equal to 1 pound, 4 shillings, and 4 pence Canadian. Thus, the new Canadian
pound was worth 16 shillings and 5.3 pence.
The 1850s was a decade of wrangling over whether to adopt a sterling monetary system or a decimal monetary system based on the
U.S. dollar. The local population, for reasons of practicality in relation to the increasing trade with the neighbouring United States, had a
desire to assimilate their colonial currency with the American unit, but the imperial authorities in London still preferred sterling as the
sole currency throughout the British Empire. In 1851, the Legislative Council and the Legislative Assembly passed an act for the purp
oses of introducing a pound sterling unit in conjunction with decimal fractional coinage. The idea was that the decimal coins would
correspond to exact amounts in relation to the U.S. dollar fractional coinage.
As a compromise, in 1853 an act of the Legislative Council and Assembly of the Province of Canada introduced the gold standard into
the colony, based on both the British gold sovereign and the American gold eagle coins. This gold standard was introduced with the gold
sovereign being legal tender at £1 = $US4.86 2⁄3. No coinage was provided for under the 1853 act. Sterling coinage was made
legal tender and all other silver coins were demonetized. The British government in principle allowed for a decimal coinage but
nevertheless held out the hope that a sterling unit would be chosen under the name of "royal". However, in 1857, the decision was made
to introduce a decimal coinage into the Province of Canada in conjunction with the U.S. dollar unit. Hence, when the new decimal coins
were introduced in 1858, the colony's currency became aligned with the U.S. currency, although the British gold sovereign continued to
remain legal tender at the rate of £1 = 4.86 2⁄3 right up until the 1990s. In 1859, Canadian colonial postage stamps were issued with
decimal denominations for the first time.
In 1861, the colonies of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia followed the colony of Canada in adopting a decimal system based on the U.S.
dollar unit. In the following year, Canadian colonial postage stamps were issued with the denominations shown in dollars and cents.
Newfoundland went decimal in 1865, but unlike the Province of Canada, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, it decided to adopt a unit
based on the Spanish dollar rather than on the U.S. dollar, and there was a slight difference between these two units. The U.S. dollar
was created in 1792 on the basis of the average weight of a selection of worn Spanish dollars. As such, the Spanish dollar was worth
slightly more than the U.S. dollar, and likewise, the Newfoundland dollar while it existed, was worth slightly more than the Canadian
colonial dollar.
In 1867, the colonies of Canada, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia were united in a federation called the Dominion of Canada and the
three currencies were merged into the Canadian dollar.
In 1871, Prince Edward Island went decimal within the U.S. dollar unit and introduced coins for 1¢. However, the currency of Prince
Edward Island was absorbed into the Canadian system shortly afterwards, when Prince Edward island joined the Dominion of Canada in
1873.

Dear Lars
I’m going to Vancouver,Canada. It cost around $10,000. I
love Vancouver because my grandparents came from there
and because its my second favourite country. In winter it is
amazing with the snow, and in autumn the leaves are
spectacular. But in the summer it’s super hot which is the
only downfall.
