Vancouver at a Glance
Situated along British Columbia's coastline, Vancouver is a 'Pacific Pearl'.
Lying between the Coast Mountain range and the Pacific Ocean, Vancouver
is one of the most scenic cities in the world. Vancouver's mild temperatures
and bounty of rain are also owed to its location, making even the most urban
of areas lush year round. Stanley Park—occupying 400 hectares (1000
acres) just north of downtown—is a flourishing example of how Vancouver
balances nature with its urban identity.
A quintessential west coast city, Vancouver appeals to millions of denizens
and visitors who bask in all it offers, from its soothing beaches to its
bustling streets. Its cosmopolitan character is reflected in areas like
the very urban Robson Street Canada's version of Rodeo Drive contrasted
by trendy Granville Island with its mix of cobblestone streets, artisan
studios and eclectic market.
The Greater Vancouver area will play host to the 2010 Winter OlympicGames.
