Depends on your interests. If you want the standard tourist experience, the top visitor locations are Stanley Park, Granville Island, Gastown, old Chinatown, and Grouse Mountain.
If you want to do outdoorsy stuff, Grouse Mountain, a day trip to Whistler/Blackcomb mountain, nature walk at the Pacific Spirit Regional Park.
If you're into the cultural experience, the museum of Anthropology at UBC, the art gallery (in downtown), Chinatown again. Perhaps the punjabi market in south Vancouver.
If you're into the food scene, check the numerous food bloggers in Vancouver (Sherman's Food Adventures, or Follow Me Foodie, for example).
I could provide more suggestions based on your interests.....
