Depends on which side you want to see it from. You can get a pretty decent view from the lounge in Canada Place, or for an alternate view, drive into Stanley Park and get the rings AND Canada Place in one shot. I took this one on the weekend. I'm sure there's 100 other shots online just like it.

There were about 6-8 people there when I got there. That was around 10PM on a Saturday night. There's people coming and going there all the time so it's not a quiet area if that's what you're looking for.

You do realize that the Olympics have been happening here for the past few days, right?
