A must see to the city of Vancouver British Columbia is the Gastown Steam-clock The Vancouver steam clock was built in 1977 as a tourist attraction for the renovated Gastown district of Vancouver. Although the clock is now owned by the City of Vancouver, funding for the project was provided by contributions from local merchants, property owners, and private donors. Incorporating a steam engine and electric motors, the clock displays the time on four faces and announces the quarter hours with a whistle chime.It is a spectacular city to visit. I recently began my cruise to Alaska here. Definitely place it on your travel bucket list.
