When we were in Vancouver, we dropped by a house my Aunt called the Hansel & Gretel house. I…read moreresearched online and saw pictures of the Hobbit House which looked similar to the house we viewed. I do not know if this is the correct address or not.

One of the best free things to check out in Vancouver that is not necessarily touristy but cool none the less. I used to take the kids that I nannied for and told them that Hansel & Gretel got lost in the house. It scared the shit out of them. They still hate me til this day for it.

I am only reviewing this since someone else did it first and it showed up on the news feed, however, in general I feel weird about reviewing homes with actual house addresses but whatever works :)

This temple was started in 1999 as a charity organization and has since become a go-to place for hindus in Vancouver! They are open daily from early morning to evening and have a aarti every morning. The temple is pretty small from the inside but very clean! The aarti we attended was very well organized and definitely made us miss India. They don't have a lot of parking nearby and you are not allowed to eat inside the mandir but you can be there and meditate for however long.
