After four years, I came back to Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, North Vancouver again. This time we came here at a 'not really perfect' timing. It was raining heavily all the time when we were in the forest. But that's Vancouver, right? This is another part of beautiful nature Vancouver has.
KIA’PALANO
Capilano has North America’s largest privately owned collection of totem poles. First nations culture is shown at the entrance of the park.
SUSPENSION BRIDGE
Capilano Suspension Bridge stretches 450 feet (137m) across and 230 feet (70m) above Capilano River.
I am always impressed by the amazing and beautiful nature in Canada. I know ocean so much, also waterfall, rivers and lakes too! When you look at the water passing fast in the river, you can feel the power from the nature and it actually gives us so much positive energy.
After we left home at noon, it was still sunny but the weather changed when we arrived North Vancouver. So we immediately grabbed the tea to keep us warmer :D We didn't need raincoat and umbrella like other tourists! We're gonna feel the nature!!
TREETOPS ADVENTURE
Treetops Adventure, a series of seven suspension bridges attached to eight 30 ton, 250 year old Douglas-firs. We are able to venture from one magnificent Douglas-fir tree to another on a series of elevated suspension bridges, some reaching as high as 110 feet (33.5m) above the forest floor.
I like this photography so much. The limited sunshine and the rain make the rainforest looks so mysterious and like a fairyland.
CLIFFWALK
Cliffwalk is high and narrow and, in some sections, glass (very strong glass) is all that separates guests from the canyon far below. This part of the journey is quite unique which is not easy to find in other forest park.
We spend around 1.5 hours to finish the tour in this large rainforest park. In summer, probably we enjoy and spend more time staying in the park, listening to the sound when the wind hit the trees, same as I did four years ago! Ah! One more thing, the ticket is free if you are pilot or flight attendant. This is also a good news for me:)
