Burnaby

　　    Burnaby is a city in the Canadian province of British Columbia, located immediately east of Vancouver, and is the third most populous city in the province, after Surrey and Vancouver. It’s a great destination for travel and leisure, offering both the vibrancy of a metropolitan area and the Canadian love for nature.

　　    Burnaby has evolved from a typical rural area to a suburban town, and now to a major city. Its downtown core has developed rapidly and is now mature and well-established. The city still boasts one of the highest proportions of parks and farmland among major North American urban areas. Major parks include Burnaby Lake Park, Central Park, Robert Burnaby Park, Kensington Park, Bennett Marine Park, and Burnaby Mountain Park. Key waterways and lakes include Still Creek, Brunette River, Deer Lake, and Squint Lake. The Burnaby Village Museum is a reconstructed 1920s-era town featuring 31 historic and characteristic buildings, offering an authentic glimpse into the simple rural life of Burnaby in the 1920s.

　　    Burnaby is also a great place for shopping, with numerous shopping centres including Brentwood Town Centre, Lougheed Town Centre, Crystal Mall, and Metropolis at Metrotown. Among them, Metropolis at Metrotown is the largest shopping mall in British Columbia, featuring a cinema, restaurants, food courts, and over 400 stores.
