About
University Village: Hidden Signs of the Village is more than just a stroll through the shopping district; it's a quiet exploration of symbols, stories, and hidden moments right before your eyes.
With Destplore, you'll discover that beneath the storefronts, fountains, and pathways, University Village unfolds like a living puzzle. Stone blocks echo ancient symbols, small symbols hold coded meanings, and playful sculptures silently point to a deeper history. What initially seems ordinary gradually transforms into a map of clues waiting to be discovered.
🌿 Things you will experience
🔍 Discover hidden motifs in fountains, signs, and architectural details
🐢 Read history through playful figures, frogs, turtles, and silent water guardians
📷 Solve challenges by observation, not by piecemeal knowledge; the answers are right around you
🌤️ A tranquil outdoor experience, ideally during the day and in good weather
✨ Follow the paths, read the signs, and let the village reveal its story, one observation at a time.

DeptkillproBeen here quite a few times now but learnt a lot more new things about this place. Would definitely try something like this again.
SarahCWe spent about 2 hours wandering through the village and loved every minute. The fountain clues were especially clever and my kids (ages 8 and 11) were completely engaged. It's rare to find something that gets them off their phones! The weather was perfect and we grabbed lunch at one of the cafes midway through. Highly recommend going on a sunny day.
UrbanExplorer_YVRHidden gem!
JenRReally enjoyed this with my sister. Some of the architectural details were tricky to spot but that made it more satisfying when we figured them out. Took us longer than expected in the sun so definitely bring water and sunscreen!
TheObserverThe way the clues build on each other is really well thought out. I did this solo and it was a nice meditative experience. The turtle sculptures were my favorite part.
