It may be a “WOW” experience for you. This is also an opportunity to walk in the PNE grounds, including the Sanctuary, Momiji gardens, Italian gardens and the Hastings Racecourse. Then, onwards to New Brighton Park, a waterfront park facing the North Shore mountains with beach access to Burrard Inlet. The history of Vancouver starts here. On your way back, you cannot miss the oldest wooden roller coaster, Playland’s most historic and spectacular attraction.
