Travel To Canada
As Canada borders the United States, it is perhaps not surprising that the largest percentage of Canadian tourists are Americans.
Among the main tourist attractions of Canada are the Spring Festivals in the Nova Scotia and the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia. There is also the
Ottawa Festival of Spring and the Calgary Exhibition. Travelers to Canada will also be able to enjoy the Niagara Grape and Wine Festival in Ontario.
The city of Toronto also plays host to the Canadian component of the Niagara Falls, which is often called the Horseshoe Falls because of its horseshoe shaped
cradle where the water falls. Another great sight which should not be missed by visitors to Canada is the
Georgian Bay in Toronto, a truly picturesque waterscape with its row of pine-filled islands. The largest and best known of Ontario’s more than 200 provincial parks
is the Algonquin Park. Other tourist spots that Canada’s travelers should take special note of are the Quetico Provincial Park, the Lake Superior, the Polar Bear Park
in Hudson Bay and the Kakabeka Falls.
Travelers to Canada will also not be disappointed when they see the snow-capped mountain Mount Begbie, which can be found in one of Canada’s main provinces,
the British Columbia. Located in the Mount Revelstoke National Park, it retains its lovely evergreen forests. The province of British Columbia offers travelers in
Canada the very best experiences in hiking, fishing and canoeing.
Quebec, whose name was derived from the Algonquian term which means “a place where the river narrows", promises travelers to Canada a true mix of the old and the
new.
Travelers can also visit the French-style hotel Chateau Frontenac, which is located in the Old Quebec district and the Tadoussac, where whales congregate near
the mouth of the Saguenay fjord. This is a sight well worth seeing. Travelers to Canada can also enjoy a little bit of fishing experience in the little fishing villages in
New Brunswick and in Concepcion Bay, one of Canada’s many coastal inlets.
The island of Newfoundland also affords travelers in Canada the best in music entertainment. It also boasts the country’s finest landscapes with its flat-topped peaks
and glacier-gouged lakes, which can be found in the Gros Morne National Park.
The waters of Lake Louise, which can be found in the Banff National Park, are the main attraction in the province of Alberta. A lake of glacial waters,
Lake Louise reflects on its surface the surrounding scenic Rocky Mountains and forests, a truly wonderful experience for all Canadian travellers.
Wedged with Alaska and British Columbia is the Yukon Territory, famed for its mining industry. In fact, one of its bustling towns during the gold rush period, Dawson,
is now a tourist attraction. Travelers in Canada just love the Gaslight Folies variety show, a re-creation of the entertainment during that period in history.
They are performed at its Palace Grand Theater. Southwest of Yukon Territory is the Quill Creek, which flows from the Saint Elias Mountains that contains the
highest peaks in Canada, as well as the waters that flows in Yukon’s extensive natural water system composed of creeks, lakes and rivers. The Kluane National
Park and reserve is one place that travelers in Canada’s Yukon province should make sure to visit. Found in the Kluane Ranges and Saint Elias Mountains, the park
offers a sight of Canada’s highest peak, Mount Logan as well as a number of glaciers and ice fields.
