Main Street is a long street in Vancouver, parallel to Granville Street and Oak Street. Unlike Granville and Oak, the street is narrower, the houses are denser, and there are more second-hand shops on the roadside. There are Still Fabulous under the Vancouver Women&#39;s and Children&#39;s Hospital, Thrift Store of YWCA, and Beansprouts, a second-hand children&#39;s clothing, books and toys store. In addition, many restaurants have set up branches on Main Street, such as Rocky Mountain Flatbread and meeT on Main.

Stanley Park is located in the heart of Vancouver, Canada, and is one of the largest urban parks in North America, covering a thousand acres. The park has more than 400 hectares of forest and is scattered with 500,000 trees, including hundreds of meters of Douglas fir, 800-year-old cedar, moss-dropping maples and a century-old western red cypress. The sea wall trail, which is fully paved with rocks and built by the sea, completely surrounds the entire Stanley Park, which is Vancouver&#39;s most distinctive slow-running trail, bicycle lanes and roller skating routes.

Really a must-see train experience in a lifetime. In September 2019, the weather in Canada was very suitable. It was very wonderful to sit on the train and experience the feeling of the forest in the mountains. The train on the Vancouver train station held a grand farewell ceremony before departure by the train company. This made me feel a surprise. There were not only Chinese service staff on the train to introduce the scenery along the way, but also a food experience. Sitting on the train and watching the scenery of Rocky Mountain, eating Michelin meals, really can&#39;t be described in words. The fare is really not cheap, I was a little hesitant before booking, but I felt the value of the money after the experience. There is also a feeling that it will be boring on the train before leaving. I didn&#39;t expect that there were still a lot of activities. The photos couldn&#39;t stop at all, especially the glass dome was like watching the IMAX blockbuster. Soon a wonderful day passed. The Queen&#39;s favorite train really deserves its reputation and makes me and my wife feel very honorable. . .
