Vancouver is an important fashion city in North America. The beautiful natural scenery and multicultural have brought rich inspiration to local fashion designers.

Chinatown is a neighborhood in Vancouver, British Columbia, the largest Chinatown in Canada. Centered on Pender Street, Gastown to the North, Downtown Financial and Central Business District to the West, Georgia Viaduct and False Creek Entrance to the South, Downtown Eastside and Old Japantown Relics to the Northeast, and Strathcona to the Southeast residential area. Because of Vancouver's large Chinese population -- especially Cantonese-speaking multi-generation Chinese Canadians and first-generation immigrants from Hong Kong -- the city is known as "Hongcouver." In recent years, however, most immigrants have come from Mandarin-speaking residents of mainland China. Chinatown remains a popular tourist attraction and is one of the largest historic Chinatowns in North America, but it has recently experienced decline as new members of Vancouver's Chinese community dispersed to other parts of the metropolitan area. Chinatown is known for its lively food scene, including traditional Asian bakeries, dim sum restaurants and trendy cocktail bars. Old-school pharmacists fill their shelves with canned ginseng and dried fish, while independent boutiques fill the streets with Chinese grocery stores filled with fresh seafood and exotic vegetables. The nearby Sun Yat-sen Classical Chinese Garden has peaceful paths and pavilions. This book is my street shoot in the last 6 years.

We often adore some expensive paid photo editing software and ignore some free photo editing software. In fact, their functions are very powerful, and through their own creativity, they can create some unusual works. Creating novelty from the ordinary is a shortcut to artistic creation. This photo book is a collection of dozens of black, white, and red photos that I edited and created with Amazon Photos, a free software.

Gastown is the core of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, the core area of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and a National Historic Site and community northwest of the Downtown Eastside, adjacent to downtown Vancouver. Its historic boundaries - the waterfront (now Water Street and CPR track), Carrall Street, Hastings Street and Cambie Street - follow the boundaries of the 1870 Township Survey and its proper name and postal address is Granville, B.I. ("Brad Entrance"). The official boundary excludes most of Hastings Street, with the exception of Woodward and the Dominion Building, which extends eastward past Columbia Street to a laneway parallel to the west side of Main Street. The town of Granville, including Gastown, was officially designated as the City of Vancouver on April 6, 1886. The Vancouver Fire broke out on June 13 of the same year, leaving only two buildings in the area. Gastown was quickly rebuilt and continued to grow steadily through the 1920s. However, conditions in the area deteriorated during the Great Depression, and by the 1960s the area was devastated. In the 1950s, the City of Vancouver began to study the construction of a highway network in the city. The City Council announced a specific plan in 1967. Among them, the north-south highway with 8 lines of traffic would replace the line of Carro Street and run through Gastown. In order to implement this plan, the authorities have to demolish several buildings in the area of Gastown, Chinatown and Starkona, making the area unrecognizable. Residents and businesses in the three boroughs joined forces to resist the highway plan, and with the support of other groups such as the Vancouver Board of Trade, in 1968 the city was forced to abandon the plan. This move not only successfully saved the community in the area, but also changed the urban planning model of Vancouver, laying the foundation for the future development of public transportation and the high density of the city center in Vancouver. After Gastown escaped demolition, the provincial government designated it as a historic city in 1971. In the 1970s, merchants and residents, together with the city council and city government departments, carried out landscaping in the area, restoring old buildings to their original appearance, paving cobblestones on the streets, and placing them at the place where Cambie Street and Water Street (that is, the site of Granville Lake Township). West Boundary) set up a steam clock, which became the symbol of the district. The area has since developed into one of Vancouver's major tourist attractions and was listed as a National Historic Place of Canada in 2009. This book is my street shoot in the last 6 years.
