British Columbia is a place where one can do it all. Often, the challenge in B.C. is not figuring out what to do but what there is time to do. We get more on what the province has to offer in this installment of Olympic Postcards.

British Columbia has sophisticated cities in the south, wilderness parks in the north, the salt-sea spray of a wide open ocean to the west, and the snow-cloaked peaks of the mighty Rocky Mountains in the east.

Nestled between these icons are the fruit-laden orchards of the Okanagan, vineyards, ski resorts, and the BC people.

British Columbia's population is an internationally diverse mix of cultures that season the cities, the restaurants, and the cultural life of the province.

Always a gold medal destination for savvy travellers, BC offers not just outdoor adventure but cosmopolitan culture, world class sports, uptown shopping and fabulous dining.
