British Columbia stretches from the Pacific coast to the Rocky Mountains, offering geological diversity and varied ecosystems. The region includes geothermal springs such as Liard River Hot Springs and Keyhole Hot Springs, ancient coastal forests at Cathedral Grove and Carmanah Walbran, and tide pools at Botanical Beach. The territory contains volcanic formations at Spotted Lake, fjords like Princess Louisa Inlet, and waterfalls including Takakkaw Falls and Hunlen Falls. Provincial parks such as Cape Scott, Mount Edziza, and Valhalla protect extensive wilderness areas. The natural features range from cave systems like Cody Caves to fossil beds at Burgess Shale, which preserve Cambrian marine life. First Nations cultural sites, including the Haida Heritage Centre and Stein Valley Nlaka'pamux Heritage Park, provide insight into Indigenous history and land stewardship. Coastal stretches like Sombrio Beach and Combers Beach, along with marine protected areas such as Desolation Sound, offer access to Pacific waters. The Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden in Vancouver represents historic Chinese landscape design.
