About Vancouver

The city of Vancouver, the fourth largest city of the state, is the oldest settlement in the state of Washington, christened after the seafarer captain George Vancouver around 1825. Back then, it was inhabited by Native American tribes with permanent settlements of timber longhouses along the Columbia River, who also established the Native American fur trade.

The modern industry centers around manufacturing, farming, lumbering, and port operations (including shipping grain, lumber, paper, cable, and canned foods), providing a diversified economic base.

Vancouver is also home to one of the nation’s few Brautigan Libraries. The city and its venues offer visitors a haven of sorts with significant monuments, downtown art galleries, museums, and numerous historically arts-rich and unique parks spread over the city. What’s more, music lovers have many options here, from the classical with The Vancouver Symphony Orchestra to the contemporary prospects at the Sunlight Supply Amphitheatre and Esther Short Park, offering free performances featuring old and new bands.

Like any other place, organizing engagement parties in Vancouver has both its merits and shortcomings. Here are some factors to consider.

Advantages

Disadvantages

• Awful traffic
  The public transport system relies on a handful of buses that serve only specific routes resulting in many locals often traveling by private cars, adding to the heavy traffic and long wait times at signals.
