Vancouver's Shopping Malls

In Vancouver, you'll find it all at the shopping mall - well-known department stores, favourite chain stores, local boutiques and the ever-popular food fair. Check out Vancouver's malls and marketplaces for the latest fashions, great food and fabulous deals.

Aberdeen Centre is more than simply a shopping mall; it's a shopping destination. Shopping here is a multicultural experience and just about the closest thing to shopping in an Asian country you can find in Vancouver. Asian-themed retail stores, herbal shops, restaurants and other attractions make it a little like Chinatown under a single roof.

Several downtown Vancouver malls - including Pacific Centre and Waterfront Centre Shops - offer an underground network of interconnected shops accessible through various buildings and entrances in the downtown core. Royal Centre Mall is also located downtown in the lower levels of the Royal Centre building. Here, you'll find Vancouver's location of renowned national specialty store Holt Renfrew, which is known for its prestigious brands and designer names.

In West Vancouver, just over the Lion's Gate Bridge, Park Royal Shopping Centre and the Village at Park Royal offer a shopping experience that's decidedly Vancouver. Check out the many local artisan shops as well as the name-brand labels and designer outlets. Afterwards, you'll need to rest and relax at one of the many restaurants. Wi-Fi throughout the complex will also let you power up the laptop while you're taking a break from power shopping.

Oakridge Centre is located in Vancouver near Queen Elizabeth Park. It offers plenty of shops and department stores along with a food fair. Outside Vancouver, visitors can check out Metropolis at Metrotown in Burnaby.
