We asked. You answered. In the following pages, you’ll find 150 of
New Westminster’s top experiences – as defined by the people who
know the city best: our locals.
Why 150? As 2017 marks Canada’s 150th birthday, we wanted to
do something special to also celebrate New Westminster during this
milestone year. The result is this incredible keepsake outlining the best
of the city by the people who know our city best.
Thank you to everyone who was involved with this effort – including
the City of New Westminster who contributed greatly to the creation
and success of this publication.
Of course, a big thank you also goes out to our amazing locals.
Without you, this guide would not have been possible – nor would it
have been as authentic or genuine. Your experiences are sure to create
new experiences for our visitors and new residents.
Here in our corner of the world, we are blessed with all that New
Westminster has to offer – and this guide presents a true insider’s view
of our top 150 experiences.
The best part? There’s no time limit for making your way around the
city and trying out these must-see and must-do experiences.
We sincerely hope you take some time to flip through this guide, and
create your own “Made in New West” moments. Happy exploring!
Sincerely,
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH:
