New Westminster

Welcome to New Westminster BC…the Royal City

The oldest city in Western Canada, New Westminster was originally the second capital of the colony of British Columbia behind Vancouver Island’s southern city, Victoria.

Located on the Burrard Peninsula on the Fraser River’s north embankment, the 15 square miles that comprise New Westminster is 19 kilometers southeast of Vancouver, next to Burnaby and Coquitlam and just across the river from its neighbor, Surrey. Having the honour of receiving its name directly from Queen Victoria (who drew her inspiration from Westminster, one of London, England’s more famous neighbourhoods) New Westminster quickly adopted the nickname, The Royal City.
