If you get a nice sunny day, go to the top of Grouse Mountain and have a beer.

If you golf head out to Furry Creek

Beautiful course!
Also the location that Happy Gilmore knocked out Bob Barker

again, head straight for Wreck Beach... you will find plenty of the BC bud there.

I live here.
Hit the back alleys of East Hastings when the sun goes down.
(kidding of course)
If you want brochure Vancouver do the things other people suggested. Wander around Chinatown, Main Street, Commercial Drive gets my vote
http://www.pfosphene.com are my photos from Van. There are a few in there from Chinatown, and the areas I mentioned if you want to look.

also keep in mind that teh city of Vancouver is layed out poorly and there's lots of great pocket communities away from the downtown core..
cross some bridges and check out Main St for the uber-eclectic boutiques, Commercial Dr for the hippy-samosa scene, or Kits for the yuppy-yoga vibe.

honestly, main and hastings is a sight to see. One of the places i will never forget. 16 year old herion addict taking a huge crap in the middle of the street, oblivious to the rest of the world.
renting scooters and going through stanley park is fun too.
how long are you there for?
- brandelec0
and remember, if you find yourself in burnaby, turn around and walk the other away
unless you wanna get capped

Kits is only good for tits.
Ok well, I'm headed to kits then.
