Nestled neatly between hills and rivers of the Nicola Valley, the City of Merritt is still alive and thriving 100 years after incorporation. Built on the backs of hardy pioneers and the First Nations people who were native to the land, the area has a rich history to celebrate. Take a walk through Merritt, there are plenty of great photo ops at one of the the many handpainted murals, or visit the museum to learn more about what made the area what it is today. At the centre of the Nicola Valley, Merritt offers a blend of retail stores and one-of-a-kind boutiques for those who love to shop. From furniture to outdoor equipment to handmade goods, it’s easy to find what you’re looking for and a little bit more!
