A cool, salty breeze off Burrard Inlet meets the hollow creak of old-growth firs as you step out of the vehicle at Capilano. The suspension bridge sways above a cedar-choked gorge, the river below daring you to look down while the rainforest around you seems to lean in and listen. Later, the seawall at Stanley Park unfurls a different rhythm: ocean-facing viewpoints, totem poles rising from the shoreline, and the cadence of cyclists and joggers tracing the waterfront.
