Stepping into Banff National Park, I felt like I had fallen into a beautiful dream. The snowy mountains shone holy light under the light of the sun; the lake was as clear as a mirror, reflecting the magnificence of the surroundings, and the color flowed with the light and shadow, which was fascinating. In the forest, the pine waves, the encounter of the deer added a little bit of energy to this tranquility. Here, it is a treasure gift of nature, healing and beautiful.
Sunshine Meadow, Banff National Park, Canada
Sunshine Meadow, located southwest of Banff Town, is a vast grassland in Banff National Park, showing unique alpine meadow scenery and pleasant scenery. We drove to the parking lot of Sunshine Meadow (Sunshine Village Parking Lot), and then took a yellow school bus to go up the mountain. Private cars are prohibited in this area, retaining the original tranquility and purity.
Sunshine Meadow exudes a unique charm, with a sense of wilderness in the desolation, majestic and beautiful. Looking from a distance, the endless snow-capped mountains rise into the sky; looking closely, wild flowers are everywhere in the forest, competing for beauty. We strolled on the winding mountain hiking trails, with tall larch trees standing tall on both sides, and the autumn is in full swing.
Sunshine Meadow offers many hiking options. We selected a route around the lake, which is about 6 kilometers in total. Along the way, three alpine lakes are inlaid like pearls. Every scene is intoxicating and beautiful beyond words. This hiking route is praised by Lonely Planet as one of the most beautiful hiking routes in the world.
Sunshine Grassland is very good and worth a visit👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.

nice weather, nice trip! the snow is already sufficient in the area! I like the simplicity and convenience of Canada! people are always happy ~
"Flying Over Canada" is a very popular program produced by the National Geographic Channel of Canada. The program shows the magnificent scenery and colorful culture of various regions in Canada. Each episode has a different theme, such as Canada's history, culture, natural landscapes, and the animal world, etc. The scenery in the program is shot by drones, so the audience can enjoy some scenes that are difficult to shoot from the ground. "Flying Over Canada" not only shows the beauty and diversity of Canada to the audience, but also shows the country's culture and values to the world, allowing people to know and understand the country better.

After my visit to Ripley's Aquarium of Canada, I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The aquarium is located in the heart of downtown Toronto and is a must-visit attraction for anyone in the area.
As soon as you enter, you are transported into an underwater world with stunning exhibits that showcase a variety of aquatic life. From sharks and stingrays to sea turtles and jellyfish, there is something for everyone to see.
One of the highlights of the aquarium is the Dangerous Lagoon exhibit, which features a moving walkway that takes you through an underwater tunnel surrounded by sharks and other marine life. It's a thrilling experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
The aquarium also offers a range of interactive experiences, such as the Touch Tank, where visitors can get up close and personal with a variety of creatures, including horseshoe crabs and sea stars. There are also daily shows and feedings that provide a deeper understanding of the animals and their behavior.
Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Ripley's Aquarium of Canada. It's a fun and educational experience that is perfect for all ages. The exhibits are well-maintained, and the staff are knowledgeable and passionate about their work. It's definitely worth adding to your list of must-visit attractions in Toronto.

Victoria's Inner Harbour is an iconic attraction in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, with picturesque scenery and vitality. Surrounded by historic buildings, such as the magnificent Parliament Buildings and the classic Fairmont Empress Hotel, the harbor is lit up at night and is romantic and charming. Visitors can explore the bay by small ferries or whale watching boats to feel the ocean. The coastal walkway is bustling with street performers, local food stalls and handicraft markets. The harbor festivals in summer are rich, and the fireworks show is particularly exciting. The surrounding museums and cafes provide cultural and leisure experiences, suitable for family outings. However, during the peak season, the crowds are dense and parking is a little inconvenient. In short, the Inner Harbour is the core of Victoria that cannot be missed, perfectly combining natural beauty and urban charm.
45 minutes drive from British Columbia to Vancouver ferry. very nice view on the way to Victoria.( BC capital)

2. You can visit the Columbia Glacier formed in ancient times
3. Visit Jasper town and eat local food
4. You must try Jasper rafting in summer
