Environmental Study of British Columbia, Canada. Tourism Attraction Guide. Visitors to Canada’s westernmost province should pack a long list of superlatives to deploy here; the words ‘wow, ’ ‘amazing’ and ‘spectacular’ will only go so far. Luckily, it’s not too hard to wax lyrical about the mighty mountains, deep forests and dramatic coastlines here that instantly lower heart rates to tranquil levels. There’s much more to British Columbia (BC) than nature-hugging dioramas, though. Cosmopolitan Vancouver fuses cuisines and cultures from Asia and beyond, while mid-sized cities such as Victoria and Kelowna are increasingly creating their own vibrant scenes. It’s also hard to beat the welcoming, sometimes quirky character of smaller communities from Cumberland to Powell River and to Salt Spring that are the beating heart of BC. Wherever you head, the great outdoors will always call. Don’t just point your camera at it: BC is unbeatable for life-enhancing skiing, kayaking and hiking experiences that can make this the trip of a lifetime.
