Said to be the only full-sized classical Chinese garden outside China. It was built in the 1980's, employing the ancient techniques of the original Chinese gardens

"The object of the garden is to capture all the elements of the natural landscape-- mountains, rivers, lakes, trees, valleys, hills--and, by bringing them together in a small space, to concentrate the life force, the qi, that animates them."

While there, feel free to also check out China Town Vancouver, which features North America's second biggest Chinatown after San Francisco's. Chinese is the dominant "minority" ethnic group in Vancouver, with Mandarin and Cantonese being the mother tongues in 30 percent of Vancouver homes.

Discover interesting markets offering many varieties of fresh and dried seafood and mushrooms, inexpensive Chinese house wares and unusual Chinese apothecaries (offering time-tested herbal cures for pretty much everything). Try "Dim Sum", an inexpensive, multi-course culinary adventure, at one of the many small restaurants that offer it. Relax in the peaceful Dr Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden, marvel at the ornate Millennium Gate or visit the Chinese Cultural Center Museum.
