Vancouver, Canada, is easily one of the three most beautiful cities in North America, flanked by mountains on one side and water on the other. Also, in close proximity is Victoria Island with its decidedly English character and the picturesque Bouchard Gardens that is simply gorgeous and must be experienced in person. Vancouver is first among equals, as our retirement destination of choice.
