It was national cinema day on August 27 so every movie ticket was only $4 each. My friend and I…read morebought our tickets online a couple days in advance. The steps for ordering movie tickets on Landmark Cinema's website was very easy. Best part is, unlike Cineplex, they don't charge a booking fee for ordering tickets online. We decided to watch 2 movies in a row that day. About 4.5 hours total of sitting in a theater in a day. The location is great for transit users as it takes only one minute, maybe less to walk from the skytrain station platform to the front entrance of the movie theater. They check tickets right at the entrance doors so make sure to have your tickets ready before you enter if you bought them ahead of time. They have 2 leather couches in the lobby and 2 more in the left lobby if you want to hang out before the movie starts. Unlike Cineplex, the movie name or movie poster at each door is not displayed so you gotta pay attention to the number on the cinema door. Inside, I really like how every chair has a recliner feature and is very spacious in front. Tons of legroom. I was able to get in and out of the theater easily without pushing people's legs out of the way as I moved through the row to the exit. The chairs are extremely comfortable and made of fake leather and even have extra padding as a headrest, you could technically sleep in it. This is in regular seating, not a VIP only feature like Cineplex. The movie sound speaker systems of the cinemas was alright at best. One tip I can give is that if you want the best sound, you gotta sit in the center row and center seats for the best experience. I sat at the very back row center seats and the movie sound felt like the speakers were on the other side of the room. On the downsides, In my second movie viewing, my seat was very worn down and the fake leather has been mostly peeled off. It was still comfortable though. You'd be disappointed if you are a gamer that wants to kill time before a movie or just wants to hang around. They have no video game arcade machines and just a couple claw and prize machine games for entertainment. Metrotown and Marine Drive Cineplexes have at least 4 or 5 video game arcade machines and lots of prize games. The men's washrooms were a little dirty and the paper towels dispensers were all empty. I saw a person trying to pull out the last paper towel from the dispenser but ultimately gave up. Too bad, maybe next time. The movie screen was a little bit dirty so I could see some dust on the screen but it was still tolerable as it didn't worsen my viewing experience too much. Overall, landmark theater's best things are the recliner seats and the massive spacious legroom. It immensely improved my viewing experience as I was comfortable the entire time and being able to sit back is really nice. Love the headrest. The comfy leather padding is like sitting on a cloud. Also, being able to move about during the movie easily without feeling cramped together with other moviegoers is great. During both movies, it was a full house but I didn't feel it. 4 out of 5 stars based on this visit. You can't go wrong with Landmark Cinemas in New Westminster.

I was comfortable during the whole entire movie and appreciate how there's also a place to hang your jacket. Busy but nice cinema with long line ups at the concession stand.

I mean well maintained, smooth, and clean - A complete 180° of the usual freeway conditions in California. Our day trip consisted of: 1. Whytecliff Park: A remote beach with a rocky path towards an island. Has pristine water & views of Howe Sound. 2. Porteau Cove Provincial Park: Has a gorgeous backdrop of the Howe Sound and lush mountains. Great for scuba divers thanks to the ship wreck, sunken statues, artificial reefs, and diverse marine life. 3. Murrin Provincial Park: A rock climber's paradise. 4. Shannon Falls: 0.7 mile loop trail with the third tallest fall in British Columbia. 5. Squamish: Halfway point. Snacked at A&W. 6. Brandywine Falls: Has an easy-to-reach cascading waterfall. Volcanic rock formations along the trail. 7. Whistler: A popular ski resort town surrounded by snow capped mountains. The Sea to Sky Highway road trip was my favorite activity when I visited British Columbia - Highly recommend making at least a day trip! The experience is 1000% worthwhile :)

This is nothing special and would be more impressive if it were a live tree that was still flourishing whilst being hollow. There is a metal substructure holding the wood together and upright. It's a remnant of the past & a dead upright lower trunk of a tree. You can see trees of this size in the redwood forests in California and maybe even the large spruces in the Hoh Rainforest. Granted it's been around since grass began to grow (more than 700+ years old) but I feel like it's nothing but a place for free photos op. It was slightly nice to read the informational placard nearby dealing with the history of the tree and how it's always been a tourist destination because apparently people don't see big trees often. I can say I've seen it though.

I felt like a kid again when we finally found the entrance off West Georgia. The first thing we saw was the DISCOVERY PRINCESS, which was in the process of being boarded. I couldn't believe how many levels there were, and it was so close that we could almost touch it! Right down the walkway to the next pier was the ROALD AMUNDSEN, which looked more like an oversized yacht. Then, behind it was the STAR SEEKER from Nassau, another large yacht. Last, but not least, was the KONINGSDAM, a cruise ship that comes through Honolulu throughout the year. Gorgeous views of both West and North Vancouver, despite the dark clouds. Once we had our fill of cruise ships, we went into one of the beverage shops and had some cold matcha, then walked through Canada Place, which had a gorgeous Sisaxolas pole with beautiful aboriginal designs on the floor. If I moved back here I would definitely spend lots of time at this place just for the cruise ships which are abundant during the summer months.

It is SO overused, and often it is used so loosely and inappropriately, that it has lost a lot of its true meaning. We've become somewhat numb to what the word is supposed to mean because it's thrown about so often in describing people and things that, while they might be really swell, they are by no means "iconic". That said, this inukshuk sculpture truly IS iconic. It is THE iconic sculpture and signature piece that, if one had to choose ONE symbol or work that represented the City of Vancouver, this would be it. Proudly standing on a grassy outpost of land overseeing the Burrard Inlet, just to the west of the seawall, halfway. between Sunset Beach and English Bay, this Inukshuk sculpture rises tall, like a monarch on her throne overseeing her realm. This massive granite piece is extremely popular with city residents and tourists alike, and I always see people taking photos of it and by it, regardless of the weather or time of day (it's particularly striking at sunrise and sunset, but at dusk, when it's illuminated by its footlights, it's spectacular! I like how it's illuminated by different colored lights at various nightly festivals during the year). One of the reasons that it's so majestic is its setting, right by the water. In my opinion, this is one of the most successful pairings of artwork to context ever, as its setting here on the water by the seawall at English Bay could not have been more perfect. I see one reviewer gave this landmark a mediocre review due to the fencing erected around the work during the annual fireworks celebration, noting he could not get up close to the sculpture due to the barrier. To this I say, get over it! I applaud the City for protecting this iconic, precious sculpture and appreciating its worth and value by preserving it as best they can. If that means putting fencing up around it a few nights out of the year, so be it. Better that then having it defaced by graffiti or climbed upon by drunken revelers during some nights when there are thousands and thousands of party-goers in this area. I applaud the City for protecting this sculpture in this way. Vancouver has a lot of wonderful artwork to showcase, and this particular work represents and pays homage to much of the City's cultural history and values. Truly not-to-be-missed!
