Metro Vancouver Regional District Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Trans Am Totem stands at the eastern end of False Creek, near the intersection of Quebec Street and Pacific Boulevard in Vancouver (near Telus World of Science). The “totem” theme is an allusion to Vancouver’s First Nations legacy. As recently as 150 years ago, the area around False Creek was tidal flats and pristine old growth forest. A Squamish village stood at the mouth of the inlet and nearby were Musqueam and Tsleil-Watuth communities. This is part of the Vancouver Biennale, the city’s biannual public art exhibition. #localsecrets

Making my way up the grouse grind when the fog rolled in
False Creek runs from English Bay up to the Science Center. There's now a walking and bike path that runs completely around False Creek - from English Bay, past Yaletown, around the Science Center, and up to Granville Island and beyond. False Creek used to be Vancouver's industrial inner harbour. One-hundred years later, it has been retrofit and renovated and gentrified. Some of the architecture preserves that history. What remains now is a peaceful places where sky and sea meet. Ringed with places for coffee, places to sit and look at the sea and sky change as big and small boats move in and out of the inner harbour. #Reflections
Deep breaths before crossing this bridge. Yes, its hanging, its suspended and it moves😃...
