Canada is one of those countries that should be explored by true adventurers at heart. Its mesmerizing natural wonders is one of the things most people admire about it, and Capilano Suspension Bridge offers amazing views at Vancouver’s towering forest.
This
140 meters-long bridge was originally built by Scottish civil engineer George
Grant Mackay. It consisted of nothing but hemp ropes and cedar planks at the
time, but that didn’t stop Mackay’s adventurous friends from crossing the
swaying structure and staying at his cabin.
Capilano Suspension Bridge went through many renovations over the years and was completely rebuilt in 1956. Nancy Stibbard became its owner in 1986 and transformed it into one of Vancouver’s top tourist attractions that attracts approximately 1.2 million visitors per year.
Visiting
this attraction and crossing the Capilano River comes with a pretty high price
tag, but it’s worth it if you’re a true adrenaline junkie. Several other attractions
have been added to the park over the years, including the extremely popular Cliffwalk,
which offers a lot of thrills and amazing views at the bridge itself.
