Canada’s Tourism British Columbia has recently opened a “Whistler Café” at Naeba Ski Resort in Niigata Prefecture, which is limited only during the winter season. The café is with the theme of Whistler in Canada, and this is a joint project which was organized by the Tourism British Columbia, the Naeba Ski Resort and corporations which related to Whistler tourism.

After operating the café for the last consecutive four years, a Canadian aluminum dome tent and a Tipi, which is a traditional tent style dwelling of Native Americans, have been built at the site. While the café serves Canadian casual food, beer, British Columbian wine, you can also find brochures, magazines and books, which related to Whistler, since the café also represents as an information dispatch base for Whistler.

Also, during the Vancouver Winter Olympic Games which will be held in February, games will be broadcasted in the café. For the selected popular Olympic events, public viewings will also be arranged.

The café opens during 19th December 2009 and 28th March 2010. It has launched a “Go! Whistler campaign” to celebrate its opening. There will be 100 prizes including a trip to Whistler (Canada) for a pair, Naeba ski lift coupons etc.
