New Westminster

The original province capital is laden with history. Everywhere you go you will find information about our provinces history.

Activities:
Being located in the centre of the city there is not a lot of space for a ton of outdoor activites, but you can find some nice walks and along the river or through historical sites and parks like Sapperton and Queens Park. You can also find the market at the quay down on the river that provides a bit of shopping and culture.
2.5/5

Events:
Other than the usual holiday events there is not much more that goes on here.
1/5

View:
Most places in New West will give you great views of either the river or mountains. Being in the city you are limited to birds as your wildlife though.
3/5

Accommodations:
A couple of hotels and B&B's that are affordable make it a decent place to spend some time, but your choices are limited.
2.5/5

Dinning & Shopping:
With plenty of speciality shops this is a great place to visit and spend a day. Plenty of small international cuisine restaurants to choose from as well with good food and prices.
4/5

Visit-ability:
You could spend a day here and be happy that you saw it, but I don't know how much longer one could be a tourist here.
4/5

Total Rating: 17/30

Thoughts: I am personally a fan of New Westminster with its local shopping and small shops along with the short walks in the area.  This combined with the history of our provinces first capital city make it a must see for at least a day.
