historical center
Here, the story of Vancouver and bridge building from the eyes of early pioneers is shown through physical objects (tools for building bridges, daily utensils) and photos (George Glenn McKee and his wife , son, dog) .
Chiapalano
Turn right and come to KIA’PALANO, which shows visitors the life scenes of the early Indians through canoes and totem poles. In particular, the totem pole was carved by the Indians more than 60 years ago, and it is still colorful and attracts attention.
The drawbridge has been safe since it was built in 1889 . When I boarded the suspension bridge, I felt my body swaying from side to side. There were many people on the bridge, everyone was talking and laughing, and they were all curious, so almost no one stopped because of fear. Standing in the middle of the suspension bridge, looking at the 70 -meter-deep Capilano Canyon and the green pine trees on both sides of the canyon is very shocking.
rainforest
Come to the other side of the canyon, follow the walking plank road, pass RAINFOREST EXPLORER , Dr. Wood’s Cabin ( DR.WOOD’CABIN ) , RAPTORS RIDGE , TREETOPSADVENTURE ( TREETOPSADVENTURE ) , and the edge of nature ( NATURE’ EDGE ).
treetop adventure
Start from the tree house, then walk over seven suspension bridges, and watch the tall and pristine Douglas-firs from above.
Cliff Walk
It is a suspended walkway set along the face of granite cliffs and is the perfect place to view the magnificent Capilano Canyon.
Walking on the trail, looking at the cliff on the right, and then looking at the abyss at the bottom of my feet, I am really scared. I feel more scared than walking on the swaying Capilano Suspension Bridge. Maybe there are fewer people here, and the aura Not prosperous. In fact, watching the Capilano Suspension Bridge in the distance, watching the rushing river at the bottom of the valley, and watching the virgin forest with tall and straight banks is still very spectacular, just try to avoid looking at your feet.
Attractions near the park
There is a dam in the vicinity of a half-hour drive, which is very spectacular.There’s also a Lynn Canyon Park and Suspension Bridge, and it’s free.
