Shopping choices:
- Arts and crafts

- Bikes and accessories
- Canadian souvenirs
- Chocolates
- Clothing and fashion
- Computers and gadgets
- Concierge services
- Jewellery
- Public markets
- Shopping areas and malls
- Ski and sports
In addition to the many shopping centre choices, Vancouver’s best-known destination for value, quality and international selection undoubtedly is Robson Street, in the heart of the city. For nearly 50 years, Robson Street has drawn visitors in pursuit of the world’s best in fashion and value from all parts of the world.But shopping in Vancouver isn’t all frills and fashion. A favourable exchange rate against U.S., U.K. and other world currencies as well as generally lower prices all round makes shopping for clothing, electronics, cameras, CDs, art, souvenirs, jewelry and just about everything guests would want to take home, amazingly affordable, as well as fun.
