Duncan (population: 4,986) lies near the heart of the Cowichan Valley. It's surrounded by vast tracts of unspoiled mountain, forest and coastal wilderness and, at the same time, offers a selection of shops and services unrivalled in the region. Often referred to as the "City of Totems," Duncan has more than 40 examples of Aboriginal totem poles on display along its streets and walkways. The city is a good jumping off point for touring valley wineries or recreational activities in nearby provincial parks. It's also one of the best places on Vancouver Island for boutique shopping.
