If you think that you’ve got to break a sweat to enjoy the great outdoors, then prepare to be pleasantly surprised. There’s a lot to appreciate in nature without raising your heart rate or burning an unprecedented number of calories.

You don’t have to complete a hike, huffing and puffing as you strive for a personal best. And you don’t have to partake in anything extreme, like flying through the air as you traverse trails on a mountain bike! A lot can happen in the quietest and most meditative moments.

Whether you take life fast or slow, Surrey has enough parks, trails and bodies of water to suit every kind of traveller, including ones with wings!

Did you know that Surrey is home to a number of parks that provide year-round birdwatching? In fact, there are over 200 unique species of birds to see in Surrey! Birdwatching is a contemplative, peaceful activity and an ideal way to appreciate Surrey’s winged wildlife in their natural habitat.

Spring is the season in which rare migrant birds like eagles and snowy owls stop to rest and refuel before continuing their journey North. During this time, local birds also seek out breeding spots, which makes the season of new beginnings a fun one for birdwatching. Keep your keen eyes peeled at Mud Bay Park, Blackie Spit Park and Serpentine Wildlife Management Area, better known as the Serpentine Fen. At Serpentine Fen alone, there are over 130 species of birds to see over an expanse of 370 acres. The popular viewing tower is a great way to gain a different perspective.

Birdwatchers looking for a challenge will love the summer months as it’s when birds are busy caring for (and protecting!) their young. Be prepared to look a little harder, as during these months waterfowl such as ducks shed their feathers and grow new ones and may be more difficult to identify. Grab your sun hat and some SPF and birdwatch in the sun at Green Timbers Urban Forest Park, Surrey Lake Park and Crescent Park.

As the leaves disappear from the trees, so do some of the challenges associated with birding. Autumn is the perfect time of year to see songbirds and woodpeckers due to the season’s typically sparse branches. Advanced birders will also appreciate the fall months as young birds who haven’t yet developed their adult patterns can be spotted. Migrating shorebirds and waterfowl also stop in at this time of the year before heading south for the winter. Grab your gumboots and head to Elgin Heritage Park, Blackie Spit Park and Crescent Beach.

It’s worth bundling up and braving the cold, because winter is the perfect season to spy chickadees, bushtits, and nuthatches. Waterfowl like mallards and widgeons can also be seen during this season. The best parks for birdwatching during the colder months are Sunnyside Acres Urban Forest, Redwood Park, Surrey Nature Centre, Fleetwood Urban Forest Park and Surrey Lake.

If you’re already a seasoned birder, then you know the basic birding etiquette. If you’re a fledgling, then make sure you adhere to the following guidelines: Respect the birds’ natural habitat by staying on the trails and taking care to not damage any plants that could be home to birds’ nests.

Keep Fido at home! Dogs are natural predators to birds and cause them a great amount of stress. Speaking of stressed out birds, try to be quiet and move slowly. And the cardinal rule: don’t feed the birds, for their safety and your own.

So grab a Field Guide, a pair of binoculars and your camera and get birding. If you’d like to take advantage of one of Surrey’s free monthly Birding Walks, then contact 604-502-6065

Happy as a lark?

you will be soon.

Surrey is surprisingly spacious. As the second largest city in the province by population and the third largest by area, there is A LOT of space to play with. The cool thing about Surrey is that its vast area is occupied by such a diverse mix of urban and rural. Rolling farmland? Surrey. Lush forests and parks? Surrey. A booming town centre? Surrey. Stunning beaches and heritage sights? Also Surrey. Does that mean you can truly have it all? We think so. After all, where else can you find the amenities of a big city next door to all this glorious nature?

We do have one problem, though… With over 6,000 acres of parks and green spaces to choose from, it’s practically impossible to choose a favourite. Of course, if we’re going to celebrate the marriage between urban and rural, green and grey, city and scenic, then we have to highlight Green Timbers Urban Forest. It’s to Surrey what Central Park is to New York City, what Hyde Park is to London and what Stanley Park is to Vancouver. Green Timbers is the quintessential urban park.

Green Timbers Urban Forest is known as the birthplace of reforestation in British Columbia. Of course, behind every fun fact, is a fascinating story.

The park that today sits nestled in the heart of Surrey’s urban development, was once a towering forest that covered 5,000 magnificent, unspoiled acres. It was the only surviving expanse of virgin forest from San Diego to Vancouver and it drew considerable admiration. During the late 1800s, travellers flocked from afar to marvel at the famous park’s stunning 200 foot timber-lined highway.

Green Timbers Park was revered by many, with multiple attempts made over the years to have the area designated for park purposes. But with each passing year also loomed threats of development - threats that were successfully rebuffed... until 1929. Despite a campaign to save the forest, all 5,000 acres of it were clear-cut. In 1930, the last enormous trees fell with a gut-wrenching thud. Dignitaries witnessed this heartbreaking historical event, solidifying the futile fate of what was once Green Timbers Forest.

There is a happy ending, though! As quickly as it was clear-cut, The BC Forest Service commenced reforestation in March 1930 and continued throughout the decade.

Today, Green Timbers Urban Forest is one of Surrey’s largest parks, with over 452 acres of wetlands, glassy lakes, meadows and nature trails wrapped up like gems within a second growth forest.

In the heart of the park you’ll find Green Timbers Lake, teeming with rainbow trout. Fishing in the city? That’s right. Surrey Nature Centre can also be found in Green Timbers, offering various types of programming and education opportunities.

If you do visit Green Timbers, if you fish in its lake, or explore its trails, maybe you’ll pause a little longer to appreciate the urban forest that rose like a phoenix after being granted a second chance.

Do your children have a sweet tooth?

We’re guessing the answer is yes, because let’s get real, what kid doesn’t go ga-ga for a bit of sugar? Cutting back on refined sugar and looking for healthier sweetener alternatives is an ongoing battle in many households.

Enter honey.

This sweet and sticky treat has twice the nutritional value of sugar, and it’s sweeter, which means you don’t have to use as much. How does your family like their honey? Over oatmeal? Spread liberally on toast? Snuck into a smoothie? Regardless of how it’s enjoyed, we’re betting that your little ones don’t put a lot of thought into where their honey actually comes from.

What if we told you that they could actually see it for themselves? That’s right. The whole shebang.

Surrey’s own Honeybee Centre acts as a fun and exciting hub for honeybee education. And there’s a lot to learn, from how the bees live, work and produce their honey, to the important role they play

on a grander scale. Bees, who pollinate a third of the food consumed by humans, play a vital role in sustaining earth’s ecosystems. These little guys are more than just a cute, fuzzy face; they’re the guardians of the whole food chain!Leanne Buhler is the operations manager at Honeybee Centre. As someone who’s metaphorically up to her neck in honey, she knows exactly what makes Honeybee Centre a great place to visit with the family.

“Honeybee Centre is first and foremost a farm,” she explained to us. “We established in 2000 as a commercial honey farm and opened our doors to the community to educate and entertain them with a fun and authentic experience. We offer public presentations with live beekeeping demos, honey tasting, a live observation hive for viewing and a brand new ‘Beestro’ serving healthy honey-inspired meals, so you can come and enjoy a full morning or afternoon on our farm with the family!”

And what about the kids with a strong aversion to bees? Buhler is confident that they’ll be won over, in fact, she’s seen it first hand:

“Usually with a little information and patience, they come around and realise how gentle and sweet these honeybees are!”

Buhler loves working with bees, but interacting with kids as part of her job is also entertaining!

“One of the funniest things about the kids that have been to Honeybee Centre in the past is the things that they remember,” she mused. “It’s not the observation hive, the free honey stick we gave them or the rows of golden liquid; it’s the fish pond in our Beestro! 80% of kids that come through the door make a ‘beeline’ to the fish pond to catch a glimpse of our goldfish and koi! Perhaps we missed the mark - next time we’re opening a fish farm!”

If you’re looking to create some lasting memories for your family, then look no further. Honeybee Centre is one little flower you’ll definitely want to land on.

Honeybee Centre is located at the corner of 176 Street and Fraser Highway (Fry’s Corner).

travelling with children made easy

Remember what travelling was like before you had kids? If you’re a busy parent, you probably don’t even remember what you had for dinner last night. Here. Let us refresh your memory…

Mimosas in the morning, dancing til dawn, changing plans on a whim, packing light! Gone are those days. Now that little ones are in the picture, trips are a bit more challenging. It’s not always easy being out of your comfort zone. As an out-of-town family, the things you usually rely on aren’t there. Where are the nearest washrooms? Which restaurants have a kids menu? Where can we go now that it’s raining? That’s where we come in!

Thankfully, if you want your kids to be happy, you’ve got plenty of options for safe, friendly, family-oriented entertainment. Why take our word for it? Just ask the massive number of young people that call Surrey home!

Now, we can’t offer free babysitting, but we have created something that will make your trip with the family a piece of cake.

Kid Approved is a program we created with our neighbours Delta and White Rock. We’re three communities that have something in common: we want to get families doing things together. We also want to make parents’ lives easier.

The online Kid Approved Directory is a no-fuss, easy-to-navigate online hub that houses all the family fun in Surrey, Delta and White Rock under one roof. We don’t just give you the names and addresses of all our kid-friendly places, we give you the nitty-gritty details you’ll need to make your trip with the little ones a breeze. Have you got a bookworm in the family? You’re one click away from all the nearest libraries and educational activities. Are you raising a future pro-athlete? Pools, rec centres, and parks are at your fingertips. You won’t believe how easy it is until you give it a try.

Happy travels, Mom and Dad! And just remember, you’re doing an awesome job.

Watch out, world. Fastpitch is back. It’s 2016, and if someone ‘round here says you throw like a girl, consider it a major compliment.

Surrey is set to host the 2016’s WBSC XV Women’s World Softball Championships from July 15th - 24th at Softball City in South Surrey. Canada’s largest fastpitch event is expected to attract national women’s teams from over thirty nations.

Running in conjunction with the WBSC XV Tournament is the Canadian Open Fastpitch Championship. The Canadian Open Fastpitch Society promotes the development of fastpitch by enabling young women to strive for personal excellence. This event is a fantastic opportunity for up-and-coming young female athletes to perform for hundreds of college and university scouts and be considered for scholarships to some of the top schools in North America.

And then there are the little girls in the audience… watching, dreaming, inspired. Who knows if they’ll be on that field one day? The fantasy of fastpitch is within everyone’s reach, and that’s what’s so great about the sport. It’s reasonably inexpensive, easily accessible and with international popularity, it’s not too hard to find an organised softball

association in your community that can accommodate a variety of skill levels.

It goes without saying that here in Surrey, we’re big fans of sports associations that nurture young people and drive them to excel. Sport strengthens the community and brings out the best in people. That’s why our city is brimming with exceptional year-round recreation opportunities. And our facilities aren’t just for amateurs and local families. Our city’s investment in sport infrastructure, including two new competition-sized swimming pools, now allows us to compete on the global stage for tournaments and sporting events. As a hotbed for sports excellence, Surrey couldn’t be more proud.

For many travellers, golf is the ultimate holiday activity. Even when you’re not on vacation, a weekend on the links can make you feel as though you are. Maybe it’s the gently rolling greenery, the exercise, the serenity, the discipline that’s required, or the conversation if you’re among friends. Either way, golf is a great way to escape everyday life for a few hours each weekend.

The sport is no longer known as an ‘Old Boys’ Club’. In the last five decades the game of golf has evolved and is now more inclusive than it’s ever been.

If you’re partial to a round or two of golf, then you’ve come to the right place. Surprised? People associate good golf with Surrey, because we have the highest density of golf courses out of any community in Metro Vancouver or the Fraser Valley! With all this green space, it seems fitting that Surrey is home to some of the best golf courses in the Metro Vancouver area.

And what makes for a great golf experience? Well, a stellar course is a good start. A history of consistency, good conditions and top-notch amenities also contribute to forming a solid reputation.

Morgan Creek Golf Course was created by mastermind, Thomas McBroom. The 18 hole course, rolling bent grass

fairways, and white sand bunkers earned them the honour of being named among the top 50 golf courses in Canada by SCOREgolf Magazine.

King of Golf, Arnold Palmer designed two courses at Northview Golf and Country Club. In August of 1996, Northview hosted the PGA Tour. This marked the tournament’s return to Canada’s West Coast for the first time in 30 years. They would continue to host the PGA Tour for seven consecutive years.

When it comes to history, Peace Portal Golf Course comes top of the class. As one of British Columbia’s first golf courses, Peace Portal has been a local favourite and tourist attraction for over eighty years.

And Hazelmere Golf Course has been dedicated to bringing quality golf to the masses for over fifty years. In 2003 they finished a set of renovations, the highlight being a natural grass practice facility, complete with five target greens and a practice fairway bunker.

So polish those golf shoes, grab your clubs, and take your pick of courses. Mark Twain said that “Golf is a good walk ruined.” Well, evidently, he’d never golfed in Surrey before!

Did you know that in 2008, Surrey was named the Cultural Capital of Canada? It’s a prestigious title and one we’re extremely proud of. It’s put Surrey on the map as a creative cultural centre. More importantly, it promotes cross cultural sharing and builds awareness, understanding, and community pride.

If you’re looking to witness Surrey’s culture first-hand and your visit to Surrey happens to coincide with Fusion Fest, then don’t miss this free event. This kaleidoscope of culture is a true feast for the senses and a perfect way to soak up Surrey’s diversity in one colourful weekend. The festival was named ‘Best Festival’ at the annual Special Event Magazine Gala Awards in 2014 for good reason.

The two day celebration brings together cultural and community groups from around the world and more than fifty recording artists and performers. In the eight years since Fusion Fest’s conception, it has grown significantly. What began as just twenty-five humble pavilions has now grown to over forty, with more being added each year. There are as many countries represented as there are pavilions. Last year we welcomed Fusion Fest’s newest additions: Afghanistan, England, Iran, Scotland, Thailand and Vietnam.

A visit to each pavilion is an opportunity to sample authentic

food from each country, learn about their economies, and discover their arts and crafts. With an award that’s given for ‘Best Dressed Pavilion’, it’s no wonder that each participating country puts a lot of effort into decorating their domain. Stepping inside each colourful pavilion is a wonderful way to travel the globe in one weekend.

Did we mention the food? It’s possible to eat around the world in just one afternoon, so make sure you leave room for seconds… and thirds, and fourths. It’s worth attending Fusion Fest for the mouth-watering cornucopia of flavour alone!

Of course, there’s more than enough fun for the little ones. The on-site Kids World includes crafts, sing-alongs, puppets, storytelling and more. There’s also a stage where performers, dancers, and musicians perform arts that are native to their country.

We think it’s safe to say that Fusion Fest is one international party that will spoil your senses, open your mind, satisfy your hunger, and ultimately rock your world.

As one of Canada’s most culturally diverse communities,

Surrey has a lot to offer its Arts Community. One theatre

company that’s been making waves in Surrey for nearly half

a decade is The Beach House Theatre Society. What makes

them stand out? They’ve married al fresco theatre with one of

Surrey’s most magnificent landmarks... picturesque Crescent

Beach. The boardwalk, that view, the lapping tide, and an

abundance of restaurants and shops make Crescent Beach a

natural playground and a popular setting for creating magical

memories. In fact, it’s hard to picture anything more beautiful

than Crescent Beach on a summer evening, unless of course,

you imagine the sprawling shore and its unspoiled view as

the breathtaking backdrop to some of Shakespeare’s

best-loved plays.

The Beach House Theatre Society has been mesmerising audiences with their special brand of magic since 2012, staging well-loved classics by The Bard like A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Twelfth Night, and Much Ado About Nothing. It’s never too early to introduce children to the magic of the theatre, so each year there’s also a show specially tailored to the very young (and young at heart). Last year’s was Munsch Upon a Time, a new play based on the acclaimed stories of Robert Munsch.

Beach House may have started with William Shakespeare, but there’s no rule when it comes to diversifying their repertoire. (After all, Shakespeare’s wordplay isn’t everyone’s cup of tea!) Last year they mounted The Importance of Being Earnest, the witty, delightful and wildly successful play by Oscar Wilde, and arguably one of the greatest comedies ever written.

The Beach House Theatre Society was born five years ago, the brainchild of Artistic Directors Rick Harmon and Candace Radcliffe, both theatre teachers at Surrey’s Earl Marriott Secondary School. Radcliffe gathered some of her closest colleagues and humbly suggested that they stage a little outdoor production of Shakespeare on the beach. Before they could say “to be, or not to be,” Beach House Theatre had grown quickly into the established non-profit society it is today, complete with an enthusiastic Board of Directors and a dedicated and professional production team. (It was ‘to be’, obviously!)

What we really find special about The Beach House Theatre Society (apart from the top-notch entertainment and epic setting), is their commitment to the community. They strive to provide an inspirational, cultural and artistic experience with education and mentorship at its core. Their productions incorporate local youth as actors, technicians, and crew members. They enlist the help of numerous local volunteers and employ hundreds of local artists and technicians, who are proud to keep their talent close to home.

The Beach House Theatre Society is proof of what’s possible when you cocktail a bright idea, a stunning backdrop, a whole lot of heart and the drive of a dedicated Arts Community.

If you’re around to catch one of their performances, thank your lucky stars. You’ll be under them, after all.

Heritage. It’s the sum total of our inherited traditions - both tangible and intangible… and it’s not just for history buffs.

Exploring a city’s heritage is like peering through a magical window to the past. It’s the next best thing to time travel. All you need is your imagination and a willingness to understand the world and the generations that came before us.

At first glance, Surrey might not seem like a city rich in heritage. After all, heritage can sometimes become lost in large, modern cities. Maybe all you notice are the buildings, the buzzing urban centres, the new builds shooting up in anticipation of newcomers - modern settlers, if you will. Maybe you just see the natural landscape - rolling farm land, dense, green parks, and lush golf courses. (Here’s a tip: heritage can be found in nature, too!)

With historic roots that derive from the influence of First Nations people and the pioneers that settled here, Surrey’s built, natural, and cultural heritage is abundant. Its past is deeply rooted in farming, agriculture, trading, and forestry - industries that have contributed greatly to the evolution of the lower mainland. Got a hankering for some history? Many of Surrey’s charming heritage sites still stand today and are open to the public. Take your pick!

Historic Stewart Farmhouse (13723 Crescent Road) was built in 1894 and was once the home of one of Surrey’s leading pioneer families. Now, it hosts special events, heritage craft activities, demonstrations, and tours in the heart of the Crescent Beach community.

Zaklan Heritage Farm (13278 84 Avenue) has been putting fresh, chemical-free produce on Surrey plates since 1928. Currently run by the third generation of Zaklans, the farm continues to set agricultural standards across the lower mainland by exemplifying hard work and strong values. Today Historic Downtown Cloverdale (176 Street, north of Highway 10 up to 60th Avenue) is quaint and full of character, but during the early 20th century it was Surrey’s commercial and administrative centre. The streets have a cozy, small-town feel and are peppered with unique boutiques, restaurants and public art pieces that celebrate Surrey’s ancestry.

Cloverdale is also home to the Surrey Museum (17710 56A Avenue) which features permanent exhibits about the city’s First Nations roots and textile industry, as well as visiting exhibits about varying subjects. The museum recently celebrated the launch of their new Kids Gallery, a permanent feature that’s all about sustainability and features green activities and interactive displays for children of all ages.

The BC Electric Railway was a source of transportation for many travellers between the 1910s to 1950s. Now, it’s a chance for train-lovers to ride the rails and journey back in time. The Fraser Valley Heritage Railway (17630 56 Avenue) operates the restored heritage interurban cars from the original BC Electric Railway Route through Surrey and the Fraser Valley.

The BC Vintage Truck Museum (6022 176 Street) is dedicated to preserving the early history of trucking in British Columbia. If classic transportation gets your wheels turning, you’ll enjoy their impressive collection of vintage vehicles, as well as photos, dioramas and model trucks.

The Semiahmoo Trail (3040 145a Street) was originally built as a wagon road in 1873. Today, it serves as a popular walking and biking path, nestled behind houses and running through the woods of South Surrey. The trail winds downhill from 152 Street at 20 Avenue all the way to 148 Street just past 28 Avenue.

It’s our 70th

There’s a song called ‘Rodeo’ performed by Garth Brooks. In it, Brooks sings of a cowboy passionate about the rodeo, intoxicated even. He thinks about leaving, but is unable. He knows the rodeo has its risks, but his love for it is too powerful, and he’s drawn back everytime by an irresistible magnetism.

For many cowboys and cowgirls, the rodeo is an old friend they grew up with. And it’s not just a sport; it’s a lifestyle that comes with adventure and a whole lot of sacrifice. There are mud stains, sore muscles, late nights and really early mornings. And it’s worth it - every bruise, every drop of sweat, every last dedicated minute.

If you’ve never had a love affair with the rodeo, then maybe it’s time to start flirting with the idea. It’s the perfect summer fling, after all. If you’ve already been to the rodeo, then you know exactly what we’re talking about.

There’s just something about the rodeo, and not only for the

cowboys competing. There’s an intangible magic, an infectious atmosphere. Maybe it’s the smell of livestock that lingers in the air or the plethora of crisp hats and shiny buckles on display. Maybe it’s the barbeque, the excitement, or the undeniable sense of community. For city slickers with zero exposure to country life, it’s like stepping into a storybook.

Surrey’s own storybook-come-to-life is called The Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair, and it’s a big deal… in Surrey and elsewhere. Country-lovin’ folk from far and wide flock annually to experience this spectacular tradition.

This year, it’s an even bigger deal. Why? Cloverdale Rodeo is turning seventy!

The Country Fair that’s now synonymous with the Cloverdale Rodeo was first held in 1888. In 1945 the rodeo came to town and seven decades later, the two are still a match made in heaven. In fact, The Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair is arguably to best way to celebrate the May long weekend.

This Ain't Our First RodeoOn the Thursday before the long weekend a raucous bed race kicks off the celebrations. Then there’s the parade on the Saturday, not quite as quirky, but just as fun. Eager spectators line the streets as nearly one hundred entrants proceed proudly. What can you expect to see? Clowns, floats, bands, marching units, community organisations and of course… cowboys, cowgirls and horses galore!

When you’re not cheering on the world’s top cowboys and cowgirls as they compete in classic ‘rough stock’ rodeo events such as bareback, saddle bronc and bull riding, there’s plenty else to keep you occupied over the course of the long weekend. There’s a Chili Cook Off, live entertainment, go-karting, BC’s largest travelling Midway and an old-fashioned pancake breakfast on the Sunday.

Cowboys and cowgirls aren’t the only ones contending on the long weekend. Skaters travel internationally

to compete in the World Freestyle Round-Up Skateboard Competition.

Have you got it bad for all things plaid? Then you won’t want to miss the Lumberjack Show that features chair carving, a hot saw race, axe throwing, and good old fashioned log rolling.

If you just can’t get enough of animals, then you’re in for a treat. In addition to the usual livestock exhibits, the famous Oklahoma-based Express Clydesdales will return to this year’s event. These majestic and formidable creatures are indeed a sight to behold. Then there are the Richards Racers. Watching these adorable, squealing little piglets race is cuter than any animal video on the internet!

With top line entertainment acts and a fireworks display on the Friday, the Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair is one wild ride you won’t soon forget. But be warned, stay too long and you just might fall in love.

We owe much of our city’s cultural flavour to the contribution made by South Asians who have settled in Surrey over the last several decades. Surrey’s South Asian influence is evident, from the scores of Sikh and Hindu temples to the plethora of Tandoori restaurants and shop windows showcasing rainbows of saris.

The popular Payal Plaza on 128 Street between 80 and 84 Avenue, in The Punjabi Market, spans four big city blocks and features the largest selection of Indian shopping in the entire province! But don’t expect a traditional market. The Payal Plaza is a maze-like strip mall that’s easy (and quite fun) to get lost in.

Whether you’re looking to find a bargain, uncover hidden treasures,

satiate your hunger or just soak in the atmosphere, The Payal Plaza is a must-see. The district is developing quite the global reputation.

The Payal Plaza is brimming with family-run bridal stores, hair salons and boutiques, many offering dazzling jewelry displays and rack upon rack of colourful garments to rifle through. Even if there isn’t any money burning a hole in your pocket, a tour through the many shops is a truly vibrant experience.

The Bride and Groom Shop is a feast for the eyes with an abundance of garlands that hang from the ceiling and drape down towards the floor. The visually stimulating jewelry section in High Heel Obsession is arranged by colour. It’s a pleasing prism of earrings, sparkling bracelets and other adornment.

If you’ve never been up-close and personal with a hand-crafted sari, then this alone will be worth the visit to the Punjabi Market area. Each sari is a unique piece of art, woven by hand on traditional looms. The attention and care that’s poured into each garment is palpable. Depending on the type of sari, even the thread is prepared meticulously, undergoing a manual dying process that can take days. Fabrics like chiffon, georgette, linen and tussar are fused together, and heavy with

the weight of plentiful, yet intricately delicate hand-embroidery. As you gently handle each sari, keep in mind that it can take anywhere from four to eight weeks to complete just one!

The Payal Plaza is also home to a number of grand Banquet Halls. Many of them go unnoticed as they are hidden, tucked away on the second floor of the plaza. But once inside it’s like entering another world, with lavish decorations to suit whatever occasion is being celebrated.

Of course, whether your day is occupied with spending or just window-shopping, one thing that you will need to do is eat! There are enough authentic Indian restaurants to keep you dining for a month. Tasty places to grab a bite include Basant Sweets & Dosa House, Maharaja Restaurant, Manohar Vegetarian Bakery and Maitri Bhavan. If you’re visiting on a Sunday then be sure to indulge in the buffet at Lahori Sweets & Restaurant.

One thing is certain, a visit to Surrey’s Punjabi Market promises to be a rich and immersive cultural adventure.

Festive & FrighteningA shopping experience like no other

When it comes to shopping in Surrey, there’s something for every kind of consumer. Whether you’re stocking up on souvenirs, treating yourself, or searching for something a little different, there really is something for everyone, from glitzy shopping centres filled with popular retailers and designer brands, to locally-owned boutiques, farmers markets and artisan fairs.

What type of shopper are you? The Bargain Hunter? The Spontaneous Splurger? The Wishy-washy Window-shopper? The Long-suffering Partner? It

doesn’t matter what your spending style is. If it’s a shopping experience you’re after, and we mean an EXPERIENCE, then there’s one place in Surrey you won’t want to miss.

Potters Nursery is British Columbia’s largest Farm & Garden Center with four locations throughout Surrey. Their quality product, impeccable customer service and award-winning advertising

have made them a popular destination throughout the lower mainland, but it’s their commitment to celebrating Halloween and Christmas that’s really put them on the map. The folks at Potters Nursery are serious about the holidays!

Each October, their 12530 72nd Avenue location is transformed into Potters House of Horrors. The second largest Halloween event in BC attracts over 15,000 petrified guests annually and spans 14,000 square feet of winding hallways. With a production of this magnitude, the planning and preparation is a lengthy endeavour, with groundwork beginning in the early summer months and building starting in September. In the front of the shop, business continues as usual, but behind the scenes a frightening world is gradually coming to life. What makes Potters House of Horrors so convincingly

terrifying? The owner of Potters, Ed Holden’s connections to the film industry have enabled him to purchase old movie sets and animatronics. Live actors also contribute to the haunted house’s chilling authenticity.

Don’t worry. If hair-raising horror isn’t your thing, Potters’ Christmas festivities will be sure to warm your soul.In fact, Christmas in Potters (19158) 48

Avenue location starts in early October. Their usual inventory of plants, bulbs, pots and garden ornaments goes into hibernation as Christmas, in all its glory, takes over the 28,000 square feet space: fairy lights, stockings, life-sized Santas, snowmen, and every kind of Christmas ornament conceivable. Of course, what’s a holiday extravaganza without live music and appearances from Santa and Mrs. Claus each weekend?

The team behind Potter’s winter wonderland starts planning for next year before the current year’s event has even ended. The buyers selecting the holiday inventory often start in December and January, travelling as far as Mexico to find unique festive items. The six designers responsible for the displays begin planning in early February and construction commences in September.

If you’re visiting Surrey and decide to

shop at Potters, you now know that no matter what time of year you’re passing through, Santa’s (or Potters’) elves are already hard at work.

If you’re wondering what kind of Christmas magic takes this long to create, then you’ll just have to see for yourself!

It’s a difficult job, but someone had to do it! Below, we’ve listed some of our very favourite ethnic food spots in Surrey:

(for our full list of dining options visit http://www.tourismsurrey.com/surrey-restaurants)

Chopsticks on Pho Unit 101 - 15325 56 Avenue(Vietnamese)

Green Lettuce Restaurant 112-6350 120th Street(Chinese Indian fusion)

Greco’s Specialty Food 6886 King George Boulevard(European Specialty Food Store)

My Shanti 15869 Croydon Drive(South Asian)

Rasoi Fine Indian Cuisine 3268 King George Blvd(South Asian)

Sabai Thai 10391-150th Street(Thai)

KababJi Grill #106 15775 Croydon Drive(Lebanese)

Surrey’s ethnic food scene is bursting with flavour and diversity. In fact, it’s entirely possible to ‘eat around the world’ without ever leaving the city!

Surrey is undergoing an exciting metamorphosis and it’s fuelling the city’s burgeoning culinary scene. A recent shift in demographic (Surrey’s population is becoming increasingly younger and culturally diverse) is allowing this food scene to flourish. Newcomers are flocking to Surrey, and it’s their differences - income, taste, age and background - that are holding the food scene to the same high standards.

The type of food that can now be found in Surrey is a testament to a constantly evolving cultural landscape. With a larger and more diverse population comes unique fusions and twists on ethnic classics. As the first Indian-style Chinese food restaurant in the Lower Mainland, Green Lettuce Restaurant is paving the way for innovative fusion. The concept was inspired by the owner who was born to Chinese parents and raised in India.

Of course, there are still plenty of traditional favourites to go around, from Greek, Lebanese and Italian to Portuguese, Caribbean and every kind of Asian cuisine imaginable (Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Malaysian, Thai… you name it!)

Chopsticks on Pho is Vietnamese cuisine at its best, a beautiful, modern bistro that’s truly an example of East meets West. Owners Steven and Lynn, partners in both businesses and life, are dedicated to sharing the delicate flavours of home with their patrons. Their menu features the popular Vietnamese staple, Pho, as well as spring rolls, salad rolls or the savoury Vietnamese Style Pad Thai.

Surrey’s South Asian community, who make up over a quarter of the population have contributed greatly to the city’s diverse tapestry. Naturally, this carries over into Surrey’s impressive culinary scene where South Asian food plays an integral part.

Vikram Vij - restaurant magnate, author, sommelier, and ‘Dragon’ on CBC’s Dragons Den - saw the potential for growth, and opened the colourful and cozy My Shanti in 2014. The menu is a reflection of Vij’s personal and culinary journeys throughout India.

Vikram Vij’s journeys are just one chapter in the book of Surrey’s food stories. Because ALL food tells a story. Every dish and every ingredient means something to someone. And that’s where you come in… Sure, visit the restaurant and order the dish. But then talk with the chef. Ask about how the food is traditionally meant to be eaten. Ask him if you’re pronouncing the name of the dish correctly. And if he’s got time, keep him talking. This, my friends, is when your travels really begin.

Want to know what we love about Surrey? It’s of the fastest growing cities in British Columbia, yet still proudly retains that nestled away, suburban feel. It’s that small town sense of community that will keep Surrey grounded… no matter how big she gets. We’ve got the best of both worlds, really. That small town feel and all that space!

When it comes to the local food community, this space plays to our advantage. Over one third of Surrey’s land is within the Agricultural Land Reserve, a provincial zone that recognises agriculture as its primary use. Surrey is home to nearly 500 farms and as a result, agriculture plays a crucial role in Surrey’s economy. Below are just a few examples of Surrey’s booming agriculture industry:

The Bose Family Farm have raised over 62,000 turkeys, a quantity that yields roughly 500,000 kilograms of meat. And Honey Bee Centre rents thousands of honey bee colonies to Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley fruit growers, pollinating close to $100 million dollars worth of fruit annually! Rondriso Farms and Pumpkin Patch is a traditional family farm, committed to naturally-raised beef and pesticide-free produce. Zaklan Heritage Farm utilises an intensive cropping style; the vegetables and fruits produced on the farm are grown without the use of synthetic chemicals.

Many of these farms are family-run, having been handed down over multiple generations. We think that’s pretty special. But what we really find extraordinary is the way this agriculture industry involves and impacts our local food scene. You know the old adage: “Food brings people together”. Well, it’s not just the act of dining together that brings us closer to our fellow humans, but the act of growing, making and serving food too.

The weekly Surrey Urban Farmers Market is a way for consumers (local and visiting!)

to connect directly with the farmers who grow their food. The knowledge that comes from this type of interaction creates a deeper understanding of every meal, which in our opinion makes it even more delicious! Surrey also houses an abundance of vegetable stands and u-picks, including Mary’s Garden, Cloverdale Country Farms, Capella Farm Market and Chu Lin Farm.

As far as other businesses are concerned, an increasing number of restaurants in Surrey are subscribing to the ‘farm to table’ ideology, an initiative that takes locally-grown food from the farmer directly to the consumer. It’s an easy philosophy to adopt in a city that’s overflowing with farms and locally-owned restaurants.

And there are other small businesses that share a unique and profound connection, like Fieldstone Artisan Breads, Beast and Brine, and Good Day Sunshine Café. Fieldstone Artisan Breads sources its ground pork from neighbor Beast and Brine, and its fresh, seasonal fruit from nearby Hazelmere Farm. Beast and Brine

sources the bread for their sandwiches from Fieldstone Artisan Breads. Are you starting to recognise a pattern?

Fieldstone and Beast and Brine’s partnership of bread and meat is mutually beneficial. When one business succeeds, they both prosper. This is Surrey’s business community in a nutshell. Almost everything on the menu at Good Day Sunshine Café is made in-house from scratch, and if it’s not, it’s sourced from Fieldstone Artisan Breads. From time to time, they bring in ham from Beast and Brine.

See? It’s an ongoing circle of support and unity that we take great pride in! One thing’s for certain, a sense of community is essential in order for small businesses to thrive. Another bonus? With a food scene this broad and connected, one visit to Surrey means you’ll surely get a taste of it.

This bustling municipality is divided into three distinct, thriving communities each with their own unique character: North Delta, Tsawwassen and Ladner. Delta is rich in pioneer history, beaches, parks and farmlands. Gentle landscapes provide easy walking, cycling and equestrian trails, as well as the perfect setting for its seven golf courses. Boundary Bay is Delta’s primary waterfront attraction. It’s the perfect place for romantic walks, cycling and running. Centennial Beach is also a family favourite. Located at the south end of Tsawwassen is the BC Ferries Terminal for ferries to Vancouver Island.

it’s for the Birds Check out Canada’s largest population of migratory waterfowl at the Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary, or stop by Burns Bog, Roberts Bank or the Fraser River Estuary.

fun in the sunStunning Centennial beach is a family favourite. Chase the tide as it laps against the shore, splash in the warm, shallow water, search for sand dollars or send a frisbee flying.

2 international airports: Vancouver International Airport (YVR) 34 km and Abbotsford International Airport

There are two border crossings in Surrey that access the US:

Peace Arch / Douglas Border Crossing (end of Highway 99)

Pacific Border/Blaine Crossing (end of Highway 15)

So, you know Surrey’s in British Columbia, but

where, exactly? Let’s put it into context for you.

Surrey is located in the South West corner of BC in

what’s referred to as the Metro Vancouver region.

We’re North East of the Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal

and about 45 minutes East of Vancouver.

Surrey’s central location means convenient access

to two international airports and two international

border crossings. (That’s right, we’re DIRECTLY

North of our friends in the United States.) With an

extensive public transportation system that includes

a unique SkyTrain system, Surrey is closely linked to

its surrounding communities, which makes it the

ideal base from which to explore all the attractions

this beautiful corner of BC has to offer.
