When I want the feel of Hawaii or Costa Rica in Vancouver, Canada...I go to the Bloedel Conservatory in Queen Elizabeth Park in Vancouver. 

This unique place was build during the 100th anniversary of the nation of Canada and is worth a visit. It's like a trip to the tropics without the long plane ride!

The conservatory contains three habitats: tropical rainforest, subtropical rainforest, and desert. Over 200 birds of various species reside within the dome and are allowed to fly free. Also on display are an array of tropical fish. The Bloedel Floral Conservatory houses about 500 species and varieties of plants from deep jungle to desert clime, all within the dome. The conservatory is home to Bougainvilleas and Browallias, citrus and coffee trees, Eucalypti and epiphytes, Euphorbia and various figs, Gardenia and Hibiscus. Magnolia trees share space with delicate lilies, yucca with pteris (ferns).

There is a small admission price but the Queen Elizabeth Park that it is contained in is free and is the 2nd most popular park in Vancouver after Stanley Park.

Keep your wheels on the ground!
