Rain defines Boras in the popular Swedish imagination. The city in Vastra Gotaland receives more precipitation than most Swedish cities, and locals have learned to embrace rather than apologise for it. About 71,700 people live here. The textile industry built the city's wealth from the seventeenth century onward, and Boras remains Sweden's centre for textile education and design through the Swedish School of Textiles at the University of Boras.
The city has invested heavily in public art, with large-scale murals and sculptures placed throughout the centre as part of a street art initiative that has attracted international attention. The annual No Limits street art festival brings artists from several countries. The Boras Djurpark zoo specialises in African wildlife and draws families from the wider region.
