This year, more than 280 restaurants in Vancouver have patios set for June-October only. This is because the number of seats in the store has decreased due to the new coronavirus infection prevention guideline, and management is not established, so the city has relaxed regulations.
The patios at each store are colorful, and it's exciting just to look at the people who enjoy eating and drinking.
Whistler, which is about a two-hour drive from Vancouver, has become the venue for the 2010 Winter Vancouver Olympics, but it is a resort where you can enjoy activities not only in winter but also all year round. The central village with many shops is ideal for shopping.
Due to the effects of coronavirus, both the ski area and many stores in the village were closed during the winter ski season, but it gradually reopened, and after reopening the tourist gondola on June 29, it will be in Whistler Village. Tourists have come to visit.
The Audin Museum and Scandinav Spa Whistler have also been reopened.
About two months after the reopening of Arches National Park, our staff visited on July 20th to check the current status of Arches National Park. As you can see from the photo, although there are some tourists at each tourist attraction, I felt that it was significantly less than this summer vacation.
Perhaps the cause is the decrease in the number of tourists from overseas who would have come to sightseeing every year, and the decrease in the number of tourists from the distant places such as the east coast within the same United States.
However, as you can see in the picture, the wilderness of the United States is still there and we are waiting for your visit when the situation someday ends.
In addition, regarding the update information in the same Grand Circle area, the closure of Monument Valley and Antelope Canyon managed by Navajo people has been extended until August 16.

In addition, we will inform you if there is an update.

Also, wearing a mask in public indoor facilities is mandatory in Toronto.
The Okanagan region of British Columbia is famous for its wine production. Enjoy the locals this summer! Local customers are rushing to do so, but in order to prevent new coronavirus infection, reservation is required to taste at the winery now. At the popular Winery Mission Hill, you can't enter the site without a reservation. Please make a plan in advance before going out.
The Fraser Valley near Vancouver is in the berry harvest season. Strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries are delicious at Abbotsford's Mann Farm. Usually you can go picking when you feel like it, but this year you need to book a date and time online. You cannot bring your own container to prevent new coronavirus infection, so you need to purchase one container for each person including children☆
The movie and TV program production industry is one of Canada's major industries, and Vancouver is known as Hollywood North, the second-largest production site in North America after Los Angeles. Shooting was suspended for about 4 months due to the influence of the new coronavirus, but it seems that the problem is solved by limiting the performers and staff to residents of Canada

Meanwhile, American football "Raiders" will relocate to Las Vegas from 2020. The photo is from the new stadium and will be completed later this month.
You can see the Mandalay Bay Hotel signboard on the left side, but it was constructed across the highway from the Mandalay Bay Hotel.
The stadium name "Allegiant" is the name of an airline headquartered near Las Vegas.
It is not certain that the current Corona War will be able to watch regular games this year after the season starts,

New York State is advancing its cautious and gradual restart of economic activities based on numerical values, with the slogan “New York Forward”.

The tourist spots are expected to gradually resume, but the good news is soon!
The high line from the Chelsea district to the Hudson Yard will resume on July 16.
