15 Best Things To Do in Vancouver, Washington

Only a few cities in the US flaunt their heritage like Vancouver does, considering it has a 350-acre historic region. The Fort Vancouver National Historic Site has different areas, including the Fort Vancouver, Officer’s Row, and the Pearson Air Museum.

However, the city also has some elements of modernism, including the Esther Short Park and the Vancouver Farmers Market.

Esther Short Park and Playground is frequented by musicians and street performers who amp up the park’s vibe besides hosting the Recycled Arts Festival that promotes eco-consciousness among the locals.

Meanwhile, the Silver Star Mountain is the perfect place for hiking or enjoying a picnic with the family. Want to sit back, relax, and watch a movie? Head over to the Kiggins Theatre, showing an array of films, from classic to contemporary.
