Vancouver, a major seaport city with an imposing skyline, on the Pacific Rim, ranked as having the third highest quality of life in the world after Zürich and Geneva, is located in the Canadian province of British Columbia (B.C.) and inhabited by ethnically diverse "Vancouverites", half of which speak a first language other than English. Vancouver enjoys a temperate climate, an excellent public transport system, a thriving arts and culture scene, excellent restaurants, as well as a stable economy and a significant film-making industry. Vancouver's beautiful natural surroundings, including ocean, mountains, rivers and lakes, are highly appreciated by locals and visitors alike for their recreational value. Vancouver hosted the Winter Olympics in 2010. Museums worth visiting include the Vancouver Maritime Museum, the Vancouver Art Gallery, the Museum of Anthropology and the Vancouver Museum.
