Learn English in Vancouver, Canada

Located in the Canadian province of British Columbia, with its temperate climate, parks, beaches, and surrounding mountains, Vancouver is surely one of Canada's most attractive cities. It is a coastal, seaport city, with English Bay on one side and Burrard Inlet on the other. The majestic Coast Mountain range lies to the north, and the USA border is just 24 miles to the south. Vancouver is a young city, and one of the most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities in Canada.

Vancouver has something for everyone. Engage your palette in the bounty of local and ethnic food, including regional wild salmon and world celebrated restaurants.

All of the ingredients for a luscious meal can be had with the offerings from the farmers, bakers, butchers and fishmongers selling at the fresh market on Granville Island. Fine waterfront galleries, art studios, cafes, theatres, bargain shopping, high end boutiques and unique, local shops are scattered throughout Vancouver. The city's architecture is a dynamic, urban landscape with historic buildings intermixed with newer buildings, which reflect the latest in architectural trends. The water is never far away and one of the best ways to spend a day is walking, bicycling or blading along the miles of trails along the seawall.

Stanley Park, one of the most magnificent urban parks in the world, is not to be missed. It is an evergreen oasis with a natural West Coast rainforest. If you are a mountain enthusiast, enjoy an aerial tramway up to the peak of nearby Grouse Mountain, which sits at over 1200 meters. The views are stunning and the year-round activities on offer include paragliding, snowshoeing, skiing, snowboarding, hiking and ziplining. Or consider a day trip to the world renowned resort at Whistler Mountain. Just getting there by scenic train is a thrill in itself. Whether it is your first or your fifth trip to Vancouver, it will not be your last, as its charms will leave you begging for more.
