The Cleveland Dam actually looks pretty ugly. But the reservoir above is great (see photos).

Built in 1954, this dam holds back Capilano Lake. It has a pretty impressive 91-metre spillway and is responsible for a large portion of the Lower Mainland's drinking water. The dam is part of the Capilano River Regional Park.

You have a very nice view of the reservoir with a wonderful panorama in the background and you can also walk up to the dam to watch the water masses fall from there.
