Vancouver — One Top Travel Destination!

Have you been waiting for a place that you can visit and feel like you are in the forest – deep in the forest and at one with nature? Well, there is a place that you can go and walk along with the trees and almost touch the tops and that is Vancouver. While you might be thinking that there really is nothing in Vancouver that is a lie!

The Capilano Suspension Bridge is one of the top attractions in Vancouver and I can tell you for sure, that it is absolutely breathtaking. It is a 450-foot long bridge that hangs about 230-feet above a rushing river.

What this means is that you can actually touch some of the treetops and that the view itself is absolutely amazing!

London’s Many Bridges: Westminster Bridge

Now that we have discussed the London Bridge – let’s go ahead and dive right into – yes, you got it, the Westminster Bridge! This particular bridge is actually one of my favorite. Not only does it look incredible, but it is definitely one bridge that I don’t think that you would want to miss if you are touring around London.

This bridge was first opened in 1750 and it was actually established as one of the most important links across the Thames. It joined the ever-expanding area around Westminster to what now is Waterloo. It actually remains still, to this day one of London’s busiest foot and road bridges.

It is very convenient, as it links between the London Eye and the Houses of Parliament, which is very important.
