Cypress Mountain Viewpoint
This is one of the best locations to get beautiful panoramic views of Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. On a clear day, you can see across Georgia Straight to Vancouver Island and southeast to Mount Baker in Washington State. The best time for photography here is at sunrise and sunset....

Smithsonian National Zoological Park
One of the best things about Washington D.C is countless number of public attractions. A day trip to the zoo is a must, especially if you have a soft corner for giant pandas. They are quite shy animals so you will have to be quite patient to catch a glimpse of...
Kurumba Island
Idyllic sea beaches, lazy waves, guppies swimming around you in the sea and beautiful blue skies above. It is the perfect place to disconnect and get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday. One can get lost and spend hours with just a book and a hammock. Even the...
