The dead-center of Canada's poorest neighborhood, Downtown Eastside. A place everyone should see, a humbling experience. Don't bring any valuables with you though, not even purses.

The most dangerous place in all of Canada, if you bother the drug-users. More drug users here per capita than anywhere else in North America.
