温哥华简介
温哥华几乎看不到 “牛皮癣”般的小广 告,他们把电线杆的 下面局部加粗,专门 用来粘贴小广告。这 比国内“乱贴广告, 罚款5万!”的硬招儿 有效多了。
好客温哥华:
人口构成(2008年人口统计):温哥华 8%的人口是白人,亚裔约占城市人口的 92%;华裔人口约50万,占大温哥华地区 人口的20%。 温哥华居民中有着许多来自世界各地的移 民,不论是何种族,在当地不会有人觉得 你是外国人。
主要景点:
煤气镇(Gastown) 这是温哥华最古老的一区, 位于市中心。Gastown之名来源 于本市第一间酒吧的东主,绰 号为“Gassy”的 Jack Deighton 贾大顿。十九世纪时,“Gassy” 曾在这里经营酒铺,使小镇日 渐繁荣,19世纪未,温哥华成 为加拿大的主要港口,1886年 正式成为城市,“Gassy”成为 第一任市长,他为了纪念在 1792年发现该地的白人船长乔 治温哥华(George Vancouver),将城市命名为温 哥华市,而后来人为纪念他也 将该区命名为Gastown。现在在 Maple Tree广场的中央立着贾 大顿的雕像,站在一只啤酒桶 上。 美丽整洁的街道矗立古雅 的街灯,圆石路两旁经装修的 旧屋,已经成为各种古董店、 纪念品店、画廊及古雅的餐厅。 位于Cambie及Water街交汇处 有世界上唯一的蒸汽钟,到处 洋溢着那个开拓时期的气息。
温哥华历史沿革:
温哥华在19世纪初时,它还是一片荒野;只有一些土著过著原始的渔 猎生活。在19世纪时,随著近代工业的兴起及新的矿产资源的发现;因 此加拿大的经济从此开始发展。 1792年,英国人乔治·温哥华海军上校的探险船航海到巴拉德湾一 带。1862年起欧洲移民在海湾沿岸定居,建立了名为格兰维尔的锯木 厂小镇。 1867年时,绰号“ Gassy”的贾大顿(Jack Deighton)来到此地, 他在盖士镇的华特尔街(Water Street),即现址的盖士镇,盖了一个木 造的沙龙酒吧( Saloons)供四面八方来的拓荒者憩息,这就是温哥华的 第一家饭店的起源。在城市西迁後盖士镇的经济便开始走下坡,在 1971年时,卑诗省政府将盖士镇划为文化保留区,古老建筑物因而得 以保存;如今,盖士镇已成为独特的观光区,维多利亚式的建筑,铺著 圆石的街道,露天咖啡座,以及古董店、精品店和餐厅,使盖士镇成为 逛街、购物及用餐的好地方。在盖士镇有难得一见举世仅有的蒸气钟 (Steam Clock),每15分钟喷出蒸气一次,CordovaStreet上有各式 各样的小商店,同时也可欣赏到加拿大原住民文化,这儿收藏了一些很 不错的艺术作品。温哥华在1886年正式成为城市,并公推贾大顿为第 一任市长,同时温哥华是贾大顿与他的幕僚决定为纪念白人船长乔治·温 哥华(George Vancouver),于1792年为找寻西北通路而来到此地, 故将此城市命名为温哥华。

2.2 别具一格的城市布局
2.2.1 特色一:密集的高层建筑与森林幵立
温哥华的城市布局别具一格,自由大胆。温哥华 市中心是一座岛屿,被海水环绕,岛屿的一半是 密集的高层建筑,另一半却是大面积的绿色。在 寸金寸土的市中心区小岛的西北部,保留了面积 约400*104m2 的城市绿洲——史丹利公园 (Stanley Park),它为温哥华市民提供绝佳的 休闲空间。能够在市中心保持大量的森林,体现 了政府的胆识和远见。
2.3.2 密集的市中心
• 市中心区是密集的摩天大楼,形成了相对密闭的空间。位 于市中心的高密度社区太平洋协和区,高层塔楼的高度在 15层32层不等。
2.4 千姿百态的居住建筑
温哥华的住宅大致可分为独立住宅、联体别 墅和公寓三种类型。独立住宅一般为两层 楼,最多也不过三层楼,但是样式不一, 造型各异,几乎没有相似的住宅形式,在 西海岸高质量的木材遍地都是,因此房屋 多为木结构,使用当地的建筑材料,体现 了浓郁的地方特色。

2.5.1 畅通的交通系统
温哥华市的交通非常畅通,几乎没有拥堵现象, 每个公共汽车站都准确的标出了汽车到达的时间, 到路窄而密是温哥华市道路系统的一大特色,道 路不宽,亲切宜人,路面宽度10~20m,道路间 距很小,不超过500m,密如蛛网的道路保障了交 通的畅通。道路系统南北向为交通干道,有各自 的名字,而东西向则为次一级的道路,一编号命 名。道路网络如坐标网能清楚地指示某一建筑物 的位置,给生活提供了很大的方便。

Vancouver, stand at the edge of the Inner Harbour (the Canada Place cruise-ship terminal makes a good vantage point) and look around you. To the west you'll see Stanley Park, one of the world's largest urban parks, jutting out into the waters of Burrard Inlet. To the north, just across the inlet, rise snowcapped mountains. To the east, right along the water, is the lowrise brick-faced Old Town. And almost everything else you see lining the water's edge will be new glass-and-steel highrise towers. As giant cruise ships glide in to berth, floatplanes buzz in and out, and your ears catch a medley of foreign tongues, you may wonder just where on earth you are. Vancouver is majestic and intimate, sophisticated and completely laid-back, a bustling, prosperous city that somehow, almost miraculously, manages to combine its contemporary, urban-centered consciousness with the free-spirited magnificence of nature on a grand scale.

政府
温哥华与其他不列颠哥伦比亚省的市区不同,是由一条特别的省例《温哥华法章》所辖。这例于1953年通过, 取代了《温哥华管辖法,1921》,赋予市政府更大及更多的权力,有别于其他由不列颠哥伦比亚省《市镇法》给 予的权力。
温哥华由一个10人组成的市议会管辖,任期3年。温哥华并没有像北美其他城市一样划分城市选区,市议员 也因此由全体温哥华市民直选选出。

Background
After the early European explorers realized that Canada was not the spice-rich Orient, the main mercantile attraction was the beaver, then a population numbering in the millions. In the late 1600s and early 1700s, the fashion of the day demanded fur top-hats, which needed beaver pelts. As these hats became more popular, the demand for the pelts grew. Explorers were dispatched deep into the North American ☆ wilderness to trap and trade for furs with local natives.
