Vancouver, the largest city in the province of British Columbia, is situated in the southwestern corner of Canada. It is located approximately 40 kilometers north of the Washington State border and is surrounded on three sides by water - Burrard Inlet to the north, the Straight of Georgia separating Vancouver from Vancouver Island to the west, and the north arm of the Fraser River to the south. In March 1995, the Corporate Resources Group in Geneva, Switzerland,
released a ranking of 118 major cities in the world based upon living and environmental
conditions. The City of
Vancouver won a silver medal as the second best city in the world. The City
Administration ranked sixth for public service, efficiency and infrastructure. The top
five cities were: Singapore, Auckland, Wellington, Vienna, and Dusseldorf. This placed
Vancouver first in North America. Visit beautiful Stanley Park. It is larger than Central Park in New York which has an area of 340 hectares. Some attractions within the park include Theater Under the Stars, Totem Pole display, the Nine o'clock gun, miniature train ride, children's zoo, open air art displays in the summer, Brockton Oval, a cricket field, and Prospect Point lookout. There are various other parks scattered around the North Shore, within minutes from the area I live in. Come Discover Yourself at Vancouver!
