Invite to admire the nature and sights of Canada!
Multifaceted Canada attracts tourists with its diverse nature.
There are Niagara Falls, national parks among the mountains, azure lakes and winter resorts.
Here you can meet bears and see a mix of modernity and old architecture from the French colonies.
Niagara Falls
The waterfall is located on the border of Canada and the United States.
In fact, its cascade consists of three rapids – Horseshoe, Fata, and American Falls.
You can see it both from the USA (the city of Buffalo, northern New York State) and from Canada.
Eyewitnesses say that the view is more beautiful from here: the water flows are more powerful.
The Horseshoe Falls can be seen from Canada, named for its similar semicircular shape.
The attraction looks different depending on the seasons –
in winter it partially freezes, in spring ice blocks are thrown down, and in summer and fall a rainbow appears from the side of the Horseshoe every afternoon.
Banff National Park
This oldest national park in Canada opened in 1885 and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
There are beautiful meadows, mountain peaks, forests of pine, fir and ash trees, steep cliffs, and glacial Lake Moraine.
The water in it is bright blue, a color that is not quite real.
Capilano Suspension Bridge
The longest suspension bridge is located in Vancouver, over the Capilano River in the nature park of the same name.
It is 137 meters long and 70 meters high. From here, the river seems like just a brook.
The bridge passes among pine trees and is beautifully illuminated in the evening.
But even without it, it is a great experience, especially when it sways in the wind.
Jasper National Park
This is one of Canada’s largest parks at over 10,000 square kilometers.
It has high waterfalls, lakes, rivers, glaciers, ice caves, deep canyons, coniferous forests and flowering alpine meadows.
There are more than 200 species of birds and many animals, including porcupines, grizzlies, wolverines, deer and moose.
Notre Dame de Montreal and the Province of Quebec
This cathedral is considered one of the most beautiful in Canada and has the status of a national treasure.
It was built in the 12th century and at that time it became the largest Catholic church in Canada.
Its highest point is 70 meters. Inside, the interior, patterned walls and ceilings with stained glass windows are breathtaking.
Entrance is free for tourists every half hour before Mass begins.
Tickets for a sightseeing tour or the evening music and light show are also sold there.
