Mindful places to meditate in Vancouver
For those working downtown, it may seem easy to forget about one of North America’s largest natural parks, which is located just down the street. And among its many gorgeous hideaways, the Shakespeare Garden – sandwiched between the Rose Garden and a dense forest of evergreen trees – is a delicate arboretum that showcases many of the trees featured in The Bard’s plays. Walk as you meditate on quotes displayed on plaques before each tree, or, better yet, bring a copy of your favourite sonnet and envision your next great love.

Spots for Santa photos in Vancouver
A Vancouver tradition for more than 20 years, the Bright Nights holiday festival in Stanley Park is a family-friendly event that never gets old. The primary attraction is the miniature train, but some people don’t know that you can also get photos with Santa every day at the Train Plaza's North Pole from 4:00pm to 9:00pm, up until December 24. Another plus? All proceeds go to help the Burn Fund.
