Regions & Cities
Sophisticated cities in the south, wilderness parks in the north, the salt-sea spray of a wide open ocean to the west, and the snow-cloaked peaks of the mighty Rocky Mountains in the east are just the beginning.
Nestled between these icons are the fruit-laden orchards of the Thompson Okanagan, the ranch lands of the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast, the laid-back lifestyles of Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, the bubbling hot springs of the Kootenay Rockies, the wildlife of Northern BC, the combination of urban life and backcountry trails in Vancouver, Coast and Mountains, and the vineyards, the ski resorts, the white water rapids, the parks, and the people.
British Columbia’s population is an internationally diverse mix of cultures that season the cities, the restaurants, the shopping, and the cultural life of the province.
