Langley

Experience The City of Langley. With its rich history, wonderful sense of community, lush offerings of nature, and proximity to Vancouver, Langley is the best kept secret in the Lower Mainland.

Activities:

2.5/5

Events:
Although there is a lot going on, there is not a big variety of big events and many more repeated or niche market events.
2.0/5

View:
Plenty of scenery here with the majestic Fraser River and views of the distant north shore mountains. There not a lot of wildlife outside of birds and squirrels but a variety of flowers and plant life can be found. Known as the birthplace of British Columbia, Langley offers a rich history and many museums to discover.
3.5/5

Accommodations:
There are plenty of places to stay with a vast selection of hotels, camping and Bed & Breakfasts to choose from. Unfortunately the price reflects the close proximity to the city and is probably a little higher than it needs to be.
3.5/5

Dinning & Shopping:
Willowbrook Shopping Centre offers a large selection of stores at this indoor mall. This coupled with plenty of out door mall complexes gives Langley plenty of choices when looking for places to shop. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from as well with some "only place in Vancouver" establishments like the Olive Garden.
3.5/5

Visit-ability:
With friendly people, descent weather and plenty of things to do, this is a definite "must see" place at least one time. The transit system can get you to the major places and chances are the weather will be good.
3.0/5

Total Rating: 18/30

Thoughts:
Langley has plenty to offer a variety of people from history buffs to sports junkies, there is something for everyone. Nature walks and shopping can keep you occupied for a day or two and then take in a sporting event in the evening. You could easily spend a day or 2 discovering this little place.
