If you’re in the downtown area looking for something to do it’s very easy to pop up and have a 360 view to get the lay of the land from a different perspective!
The Dominion Building looks down.

I came to see a Gaztown steam clock and stopped by. It was so quiet and surprising. Maybe it was because of the overcast sky, but there were only two groups on the observatory except us. The scenery is so good that if you've seen the Never Ending Story, you'll definitely want to climb it, as it overlooks the Dominion Building from the movie.
Great way to spend an hour

Taking the elevator to the viewing area. We were greeted by a staff member who said we could download an audio guide but there is no wifi ??? Apart from this the vista is great with small plaques giving some information on each area.
Peaceful

Spend money on something else. It was easy to find. Windows appeared dirty. Admission cost should be half of what was charged to get even a slight recommendation. Have been in other lookout towers in big cities with view more interesting. Can see the beauty of Vancouver on bridges and beachfront.
Amazing views

A nice way to see...

Simple, easy and affordable way to see ALL of what Vancouver offers. The signage helps you identify highlights and to learn some history.
It was convenient to buy my ticket before I headed to this attraction.

I wanted to get great views of the city from a higher vantage point, and this attraction satisfied my objective. The cost of admission was reasonable, and I got to see three hundred sixty-degree (360°) views of Vancouver. This city had many beautiful skyscrapers, bridges, gardens, and adjacent mountains. It was wise to buy the ticket in advance so that I did not have to waste any time to stand in a line. This whole attraction was indoors, and it did have bathrooms and a gift shop. I enjoyed the glass elevator ride to the top.
