Flights to Vancouver

Vancouver is a seaport city in British Columbia, and the third largest city in Canada. Located roughly 50km north of the US border, it is a relatively young city, but the Coast Salish indigenous people lived there for around 6000 years. Named after Captain George Vancouver, who sailed from Western Australia to Alaska and entered the harbour in 1792, the area was a hub for logging and fur trading, exporting high quality timber around the world. The population of the city expanded rapidly with the arrival of the transcontinental railway in the late 1880s, and has grown every year since.

Being a port city, there are many nationalities living in the area, which is represented by the different types of cuisine in the restaurants and cafes. There is also a large food truck scene in the city. There are many museums and galleries to visit, as well as a thriving theatre scene.
