Why Canada Should Be Your Next Trip
The Canadian Rockies are the highlight of many trips. Banff and Jasper National Parks are full of turquoise lakes like Lake Louise and Moraine Lake, snowy peaks and wildlife like bears, elk and mountain goats. The Icefields Parkway between them is one of the most beautiful drives in the world.
Canada’s cities are modern, safe and multicultural. Vancouver sits between the mountains and the ocean, Toronto has the CN Tower and a lively food scene, and Montreal and Quebec City bring a French atmosphere with old stone streets and cozy cafes.
Niagara Falls is one of the most famous waterfalls in the world and an easy trip from Toronto. On the coasts, you can watch whales in British Columbia and Nova Scotia, and in the far north, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories offer some of the best places to see the northern lights.
Canada is also known for its friendly people and cozy food. Try poutine in Quebec, maple syrup treats, fresh seafood on the coasts and a Nanaimo bar for dessert. In every season, Canada offers something new, from summer hiking to winter skiing.
