  • Nelson ist eine kanadische Kleinstadt in der kanadischen Provinz British Columbia. Sie liegt am Ufer des Kootenay-Sees in den West-Kootenays im Selkirkgebirge. Der Hauptort des Bezirks Central Kootenay ist bekannt unter dem Beinamen 'The Queen City'. Nach der Entdeckung von Silbervorkommen 1886 wuchs der Ort schnell an, so dass er ab 1897 eine eigene Verwaltungseinheit bildete. Bereits 1900 wurde ein Straßenbahnsystem aufgebaut. Viele Gebäude im viktorianischen Stil sind aus dieser Zeit erhalten geblieben. Nelson hat eine sehr liberale Politik, insbesondere wird der Verkauf von Marijuana in Coffee Shops seitens der Behörden geduldet.

  • ネルソン（英：Nelson）はカナダのブリティッシュコロンビア州にある、人口およそ1万人の都市である。 ブリティッシュコロンビア南東部のセントラル・クートニー地域の南東部に位置し、19世紀末に鉱山の街として栄え、現在は地域の中心地となっている。 市街地には当時から残る歴史的な建物が並び、「Queen City」の異名を持つ。 現在は、演劇や美術、映画、音楽など多彩な芸術の街としても知られ、古くからある劇場でさまざまな催し物が行われたり、フィルム・フェスティバルが開かれたりしている。 バンクーバーに移住していた日系カナダ人が第二次世界大戦において強制移住・収容されたニューデンバー（New Denver）が北方に存在し、周辺地域には現在も何人かの日系カナダ人が住んでいる。 静岡県伊豆市とは旧修善寺町からの姉妹都市提携が結ばれており、テーマパーク虹の郷にあるカナダ村は、ネルソンを模して造られた。
