There really is no place like Vancouver thanks to it’s scenic location on the British Columbia coast. A coastal temperate rainforest found on the Lower Mainland, the Pacific Ocean lapping it’s shores on one side and tucked up against the North Shore Mountains, Vancouver is a fabulous base for exploration. A multi cultural city, great tourist attractions, a popular filming location, a foodie’s paradise, shopping mecca, thriving sport, music, theatre and art scene, and friendly locals, it’s easy to understand why Vancouver is one of the worlds most livable cities.
