Set between the Pacific Ocean in the west and the magnificent Rocky Mountains in
the east, British Columbia is Canada's westernmost province. Blessed with
breathtaking landscapes, BC is home to a geographical diversity that lends
itself to a vast array of activities and adventures. There are mountains to
climb, rivers to run, beaches to comb, forests to hike, parks to stroll and warm
summer lakes to laze about on.
The province generally enjoys a temperate climate but where there are mountains,
there is snow. Renowned for the steep and the deep of its world-class ski
terrain, BC is bustling with energy and opportunity as it prepares for the
Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
Always a gold medal destination for savvy travellers, BC offers not just outdoor
adventure but cosmopolitan culture, world class exhibitions, uptown shopping and
fabulous dining. From sophisticated cities to breathtaking scenery, there is
something for everyone in BC.Tourism British Columbia
