Vancouver, regularly listed by Conde Nast Traveler as one of the world's top ten destinations, is full of secrets. Under the spectacular Lions Gate Bridge are two bombproof bunkers. In addition to the world-famous Wreck Beach there are a number of places to sunbathe nude. Beneath the road that encircles Stanley Park, the city's largest green space, lie the graves of some of Vancouver's earliest settlers, the last of whom was buried in 1888. And most people know that a number of American movies and TV shows are filmed in Vancouver, including The X-Files and Millenium, but Vancouver is also regularly used as a location by filmmakers from Hong Kong and India. These are just some of the facts in this offbeat guidebook produced in conjunction with Vancouver Magazine, 1998 National Magazine Award winner for Magazine of the Year, and based on their annual "Secrets of the City" issue. Full of odd footnotes and unusual facts about city life, past and present, there are also directions to Vancouver's best-kept secrets, whether they be restaurants, hangouts, nightclubs, tourist destinations, or places for bargains.
