Fresh mornings, warm afternoons,<br />

hot nights.<br />

Culture, food, adventure...The perfect two–night getaway<br />

From the moment you arrive in <strong>Richmond</strong>, all your<br />

senses come alive. That’s a guarantee.<br />

Founded in 1879, British Columbia’s fourth-largest<br />

city delivers a multicultural blend of experiences<br />

unique in Canada. And you can prove it for yourself<br />

any day of the week.<br />

Enjoy a glorious pink-orange sunrise and mountain<br />

views as you bike alongside the Fraser River, home to<br />

the world’s largest salmon run. Admire the imposing<br />

“wood wave” roof of the <strong>Richmond</strong> Olympic Oval,<br />

the sports legacy facility from the Vancouver 2010<br />

Olympic Winter Games.<br />

You’ll thrill to the sight of boats and the cries of<br />

seagulls, echoing along on the salty ocean breeze,<br />

when you visit Steveston. This Historic Fishing<br />

Village celebrates the West Coast’s salmon-canning<br />

and ship-building past at its National Historic Sites.<br />

You can still buy fish right off the boats docked<br />

near the boardwalk. Steveston also offers whalewatching<br />

adventures and stages maritime-themed<br />

festivals for the whole family. Don’t miss the quaint,<br />

unique gift shops.<br />

Fresh sensations await around every corner in<br />

<strong>Richmond</strong>. In the Golden Village’s lively Asian<br />

restaurants, discover the taste of authentic dim<br />

sum or hot pot. Top that off with a sweet swig of<br />

blueberry wine at one of <strong>Richmond</strong>’s local wineries.
