This fall, you need to grab a PSL and go for a walk along the seawall to The Sylvia Hotel in Vancouver.

It's a storybook-worthy gem by English Bay that's covered in vibrant autumn-hued leaves.

Built in 1912, the Sylvia Hotel is a city landmark and one of Vancouver’s greatest treasures.

It is no wonder it is one of the city's most iconic structures as there are living walls over the entire building change colours.
