Nelson · Canada
This photogenic little city on the western arm of Kootenay Lake in British Columbia's Selkirk Mountains, Nelson has a café and restaurant scene that punches above its size and a collection of heritage buildings dating from the regional silver rush of 1886. Scenic viewpoints in the surrounding mountains add to its appeal as a base for exploring the West Kootenay region.
