Shopping on Robson Street

This shopping area could be considered Vancouver's version of Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, or London's Oxford Street. At the same time, there is something for everyone here.

And the prices, while certainly no bargain basement, are definitely middle of the road. Popular stores where you can find some uniquely Canadian items include:

Roots (Canadian designer wear)

HMV (good selection of music from Canadian bands and artists)

Lululemon (Popular Canadian women’s clothing store)

If you're just wanting to do some souvenir hunting, you'll come across lots of shops with postcards, art work, and knick knacks galore!
