The steam clock is one of the lamest tourist sites in Vancouver. It does make me smile if I am nearby and hear it go off though, I must admit. It is in Gastown, which is right on the doorstep of the DTES, so as a tourist unfamiliar with the area, I would recommend sticking to the cobblestoned streets after dark in that neighbourhood. There are lots of local designers which have been setting up lovely boutique shops in that neighbourhood as well, so as a result, Gastowns shopping is half tourist-trap, half local designers shops.

There`s always a ton of people waiting to take pictures here so you might as well join them.

I did!

Gastown itself with it`s pebbled roads makes for a nice place to take a walk, especially on a nice night with the street lamps all lit.

First encountered this artefact in 1982, and thought the Gas Town area was one of the coolest places I had ever seen... Its getting a bit seedier now (last visit 2005).
