Vancouverers - VanDusen or Butchart Gardens?

[changy]

I'm going to Vancouver over Easter weekend to hangout. Between VanDusen and Butchart gardens, which one is nicer?

Also, I've already been to Gastown, Stanley Park, Granville and Capilano bridge, where else should I check out? Some one recommened the UBC botanical gardens, is it worth the trip? Thanks

Butchart is nicer but it is not in Vancouver - it is north of Victoria on the island.

The museum of Anthropology (also out at UBC) is good as is the Botanical gardens there.

The Aquarium at Stanley park is fun as is Science World, I take my kids there and they love it.

There will probably still be snow up on Seymour, it's only an hour from downtown and the views are phenomenal.
