About Vancouver

Vancouver has been called exciting, dynamic, amazing, vibrant, multicultural and cosmopolitan. Combining the beauty of the Pacific Ocean, the majesty of the Coastal Mountains, and a mild climate makes Vancouver one of the most intriguing cities in the world. It is an outdoor city - offering the health enthusiasts a wide range of sports. Vancouver has been chosen to host the 2010 Winter Olympics. Visitors of all ages will find activities to satisfy all expectations of this Canadian treasure.

Stanley Park, the jewel of Vancouver, attracts visitors and residents alike to enjoy the outdoors at its finest. Art museums, live theatre, horse racing, or cruising the waters around Vancouver are only a few of the many activities available.

The strength of Vancouver lies in her diverse ethnic groups, each adding to the charm, colour and flavour of the city. While shopping, dining or enjoying the magnificent outdoor activities, one can hear a myriad of languages, all blending into a beautiful sound; English and Chinese are the most predominant languages. Like many other dynamic cities, neighbourhoods define Vancouver: Gastown, a charming and historic area with cobblestone streets, small shops and intimate restaurants; Kilsilano, a casual and health conscious neighbourhood; Chinatown, with its traditional architectural and large open-air markets; and Robson Street, known for its fashionable boutique shopping and one-of-a-kind eateries.

It is no wonder that Vancouver has been named one of the most beautiful and liveable cites in the world!
