Vancouver BC

by carlosx - last update: Feb 28, 2006

Vancouver BC Canada

Vancouver is consistently ranked as one of the best cities in the world to live in. It is a vibrant multi-cultural urban center surrounded by the ocean and mountains. There is a great music and sports scene in this city and a abundance of things to do. Vancouver will be hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics.

The Weather

Vancouver has a very temperate climate for a Canadian city. It is a rare site to see snow in the city during the winter. The fall and winter in Vancouver is cool and rainy , however, if you are a skier or snowboarder, this is a good thing because the mountains in the area get tonnes of snow. The summers in Vancouver are great, it is hot but not too hot, sunny and dry. Best time to visit Vancouver is either in the summer (June 15 - Aug 15) or sping (March 15 - June 15). The spring in Vancouver is amazing, the city is full of colour with over 35000 flowering cherry trees, the weather is warm making it possible to go snowboarding in a t-shirt in the morning then go lay on the beach or go sailing or golfing in the afternoon.
