Vancouver
Vancouver sets glass towers against the North Shore mountains and wraps its downtown peninsula in a continuous waterfront seawall. Within an hour of the centre — much of it by public transport — you can ride a rainforest suspension bridge, climb an 800-metre mountain trail or kayak a glassy fjord arm.
