Vancouver Gastown

Gastown is the oldest area of Vancouver Canada and is located just east of Canada Place.

The community was transformed from what once was a grubby rough area into a popular tourist destination with popular shops and restaurants.

The steam powered clock on Water Street is a Vancouver landmark and tourist attraction.

This unusual mechanism is powered by an underground steam system that also powers some of the nearby buildings.
