| BURNABY MOUNTAIN This is one of our favorite spots in the Vancouver area. It's also near our favorite Chinese restaurant and deli, so we invariably end up driving up the mountain on every visit to Vancouver. The chief attraction is the view. To the west is a fine view of the entire Vancouver metropolis and surrounding waterways. To the north is a channel that looks like a Norwegian fjord backed up by snow-capped mountains. Perhaps it is technically a fjord. There are a few further attractions on the mountain. Several odd-looking poles and carvings stationed around a grassy field come from Japan. They are totem poles of the Ainu people - the indigenous tribes of Japan who were driven to the north and up into the mountains. In August, the extensive rose garden is in bloom. Picnic tables are stationed nearby. A painted, Northwest Indian totem pole looks over the garden. Up the hill is found a small playground.
