The most beautiful city in the world. This is a compilation of all things Vancouver. Credit to those that helped me, corrected me and added their own material. It's an ongoing work so feel free to add suggestions.

Oh, word of advice, dont just turn all the postmarks on, its a bit cluttered. Just turn on what looks interesting and go from there. To do a tour, turn off the skytrain stations and the regional map overlays, and enjoy the ride. Cheers!

Feedback appreciated.

Fantastic job!! I live here as well, and completely agree that it is the most beautiful city in the world.

Couple of notes: My Aunt lives in the condo tower on the west side of "Sean's condo complex" I have looked down on it from her balcony many times.

Also, I was disappointed that you left out one of my favorite spots in the city, Queen Elizabeth Park with the Bloedel Conservatory. (Although it looks kind of rough in the image since they were doing seismic upgrading of the resevoir at the time it was taken)

I think the Aquarium deserves a mention as well. Other than that, I love the fact that you even got all the skytrain stations on there. Again, fantastic job!

You could mention the fact that Wreck Beach is a nudist beach ! That should get some peoples attention.

The Vancouver area image database has been modified and it would seem updated. So, i've fixed some placemarks and here it is, the long awaited update. Soon to come, Winter Olympics 2010 sites.

Oh, word of advice, dont just turn all the postmarks on, its a bit cluttered. Just turn on what looks interesting and go from there. To do a tour, turn off the skytrain stations and the regional map overlays, and enjoy the ride. Cheers!

Feedback appreciated.
