Vancouver

​

Vancouver has been selected as one of the most livable cities in the world for years. Here are some facts you should know about the city located in the Lower Mainland region of British Columbia:

 

• Convenient transport

Facing the Pacific Ocean and having coast mountains and Rocky mountains in the back, Vancouver plays an important role as the busiest and largest port city in Canada, so called “terminal city”.  In the city centre, the public transit web is well-built and ranges wide enough that it takes you to anywhere you want to go.

 

• Climate

Vancouver is one of Canada's warmest cities in the winter while it has the coolest summer average high of all major Canadian metropolitan areas. Its average temperature in summer is 20-25 degrees, which is very comfortable, when snow falls in winter on nine days per year on average. The summer months are typically dry. Vancouver is also one of the wettest Canadian cities so that it’s given the name of “city of rain”.

 

• Natural Environment

Vancouver has been called a “green city” for its surrounding coast and mountainside districts. You can still find peace of mind among the hustle and bustle in the city.

 

• Multiculturalism

Vancouver consists of immigrants from around the world so it develops its respect for multi-cultures. You naturally learn how to be a global citizen in the culturally diverse suburbs.
