Vancouver

Vancouver lies between the Pacific Ocean and the Coast Mountains in Western Canada. Its glassy skyscraper skyline shouts modernity and business, but it’s also one of the country's major cultural hubs. The Museum of Anthropology tells stories of art and history from around the world, and the Access Run Art Centre supports emerging creatives.

To live like a Vancouverite, check out the Granville Island Public Market. There are tons of foodie delights on offer, from steaming fresh-baked bread to bundles of colorful vegetables, plus local arts and crafts sold by the artisans themselves.
