Canada Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jul)

Niagara Falls Nightly Illumination

#usatravel #newyork When we talk about New York, it's not just Manhattan that comes to mind, but also the Niagara Falls, one of the most iconic natural attractions in North America, located on the border between the United States and Canada. The falls are renowned for their impressive height, thunderous roar, and the massive volumes of water that cascade over the edge every minute. Many people travel to the US just to witness these incredible waterfalls, which are among the biggest in the world. However, not many people know about the nightly illumination event, which we highly recommend to anyone traveling to Niagara Falls to stay overnight and witness. The nightly illumination of Niagara Falls is a must-see event that showcases the falls in a dazzling display of color and light. Each night, Niagara Falls is illuminated with colorful lights that create a stunning display against the backdrop of the cascading water. This enchanting spectacle is sure to be a highlight of your visit, offering a unique and memorable perspective on one of the world's most famous natural wonders.

Niagara Falls

We drove from Buffalo to Niagara area of Ontario by crossing rainbow bridge. After dropping off the luggages in the hotel, we went to take boat right away. The feeling of being surrounded by the powerful rush of water is truly breathtaking. You'll feel the mist on your face and the roar of the falls in your ears, creating a sensory experience like no other. And, the view of the falls from the boat is simply amazing!!!

Beautiful falls

We travelled to Canada in September via trip.com. We managed to book a coach on the megabus website and it toon us out on a day trip to visit Niagra falls. They were amazing from the Canadian side. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and definitely recommend it. Theres a cafe nearby so you can get a nice warm drink after as the falls can be a little chilly.

Driving in the Canadian Rockies! 🏔️

Driving in Banff is a beautiful experience with picturesque mountain views around every turn! The park has designated pull-off areas, so drivers can stop and take in the breathtaking scenery without disrupting traffic. The mountains surrounding you, just simply amazing. However, it's important to exercise caution and obey the speed limits as wildlife frequently cross the road. Road conditions can also change quickly, especially during winter, so it's best to check the weather forecast and road reports before setting off. It's also advisable to fill up the gas tank before heading out on a long drive as gas stations can be few and far between in the park. #banff

Winter Wonderland is REAL

If you want to experience an authentic, snowy winter, make sure you come to Banff National Park in the winter! Banff national park in winter is literally a DREAM. Skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and skating are all fantastic. They offer amazing hiking trails. Make it to the viewpoint of the cascade mountains and Banff is all yours!! The lakes all become frozen so don’t expect blue water but still amazing! #banff #canada

Canada's most famous National Park

Banff is a must visit for anyone who's a nature lover Even if nature isn't you're thing, don't worry as Banff is still very accessible and you can still admire it. Joining a tour is an option, especially if you go from Calgary. Further a day trip is also feasible but I would suggest spending a night or two to really feel the park and explore most of what it has to offer. Banff is truly an amazing place as no landscape is the same after that moment, meaning even five minutes later, the same landscape would have changed. You'll find ice capped mountains, beautiful green forests, turquoise lakes and wildlife. You also might be greeted by the four seasons all in one day. Obviously the best time to visit is in summer when you can take advantage of the nice weather outdoors but other seasons have their own flavors as well. Therefore hop in a car and just drive around and get lost in this marvelous national park or Canada's backyard. Overall, Banff has plenty to offer. You'll be greeted by lovely nature landscapes and memories that will awe you for the rest of your life. #nationalpark #nature #explore #travel #banff #alberta #canada

A Breathtaking Moment of Gratitude and Wonder Amidst Nature's Enchanting Beauty 🌅🛳️❄️

There are moments in life that take your breath away. Moments that make you feel small and insignificant in the face of nature’s beauty. Moments that fill you with gratitude. This was one of those moments. I witnessed the most stunning sunset over the calm ocean in the Arctic, and I felt like I was in a dream. The sky was painted with shades of pink, purple, orange and blue, and the water reflected the colors like a mirror. I felt like I was witnessing a miracle, and I wanted to share it with you. This is why I travel. 🌅 🛳️ cr：worldtraveler_ab& Contact us for removal

Protecting Wildlife and the Global Climate Balance 🌍❄️🐾

Did you know that the pack ice in the Arctic Ocean is home to amazing wildlife like polar bears, seals and walruses? 🐻🐟🐳 Pack ice is formed by shards of sea ice freezing together, creating a mosaic of ice floes that can stretch for miles. It’s an important hunting ground for polar bears, who can leap from floe to floe in search of prey. 🐾 But pack ice is also under threat from climate change, which is causing it to melt faster and shrink in size. This affects not only the animals that depend on it, but also the balance of heat and water in the polar regions. ❄️ Pack ice reflects about 60% of incoming solar radiation, keeping the Arctic cool and preventing further warming. It also insulates the ocean from the cold air above, reducing heat loss and evaporation. 💧 As pack ice disappears, more sunlight is absorbed by the darker ocean, creating a feedback loop that accelerates melting and warming. This also increases the salinity and density of the surface water, which can affect ocean currents and weather patterns around the world. 🌎 We need to act now to protect this fragile ecosystem and its inhabitants. Join me in raising awareness and supporting organizations that are working to conserve the Arctic pack ice and its wildlife. 🙌 cr：worldtraveler_ab& Contact us for removal

A Call to Action for the Survival of Majestic Wildlife and Indigenous Cultures in the Face of Climate Change!

The Arctic is such a beautiful and fragile place, home to incredible wildlife and Indigenous cultures. But it is also under threat from climate change. The Arctic is warming at twice the rate of the global average, melting glaciers and sea ice, and threatening the survival of polar bears. Let’s protect the Arctic for future generations! 🙌❄️🐻 cr：worldtraveler_ab& Contact us for removal

Sunset Trek to Moraine Lake: A Majestic Natural Marvel 🌲💙

Embark on an unforgettable sunset hike to Moraine Lake in Banff National Park, Canada. As you reach the Rockpiles, brace yourself for breathtaking views of this glacier lake, surrounded by lush forests.

Moraine Lake is arguably one of the most beautiful places in the world. Blue-green water that looks like it couldn’t be real and snow capped peaks. The Moraine Lake area also has several amazing hikes that all begin at its shores. Consolation Lakes, Mount Temple and Larch Valley are just a few of the options available. Don’t forget you can also canoe here as well! #canada #banff #lake #reflection

These were all taken over a morning at Moraine. We got there to see the stars at night. Then it got super cloudy as blue hour stared, before clearing a little bit for golden hour. Can you spot the rainbow? #awesomepic

By far, the prettiest lake I've been to is Moraine Lake out in Banff. Because the lakes in Banff are such a tourist attraction, you truly need to time your visits so that you arrive around sunrise when the crowds are at a minimum and parking is available. One of the activities that people enjoy doing while in Banff is kayaking on the lakes. The cost is around $100 for about an hour of kayaking on a beautiful blue glacial lake! Banff is quite expensive to stay in. You can also look at nearby Canmore as a place to stay to save some money! #banff #calgary #alberta #morainelake #rockymountains

Of Totems, Trails & Tranquility 👺🍁

I found my visit to Stanley Park in early October to be an enchanting experience. Weary from our 17 hour long flight to Vancouver, I really need a good walk to stretch and shake off my sore muscles. In Vancouver, there is definitely no better place to do that than Stanley Park. Walking along the Vancouver Seawall, the crisp sea breeze and the stunning waterfront views was definitely a big contrast from the stuffy airplane air and small personal entertainment screen. It felt so liberating to be at such a beautiful place. Walking along, we reached the totem poles which provided us with a glimpse into indigenous (First Nations) culture and art. As I continued strolling amidst the vibrant hues of autumn leaves, I felt truly immersed in nature's beauty. How I wish Singapore had 4 seasons! My final verdict: Stanley Park truly captivated us with its combination of natural splendor and cultural heritage. It is a must-visit destination for anyone exploring Vancouver! #WinHKFlight #winhkflight I want to visit Hong Kong as it is a shopaholic's paradise! From luxury boutiques in IFC and ICC, to street markets like the Ladies' Market, to discounted shops in Tung Chung, I can't wait to visit this retail therapy heaven!

Stanley Park, Vancouver

Went on a date with my boyfriend in Vancouver and had a lovely time strolling around Stanley Park. The park offers hiking trails and beautiful views of Vancouver Harbour. We also visited Vancouver Aquarium and the Totem Poles. We then drove around the perimeter of the park, but be warned that there are horse-drawn carriages that tend to slow down traffic. There is paid hourly parking around the park. #vancouver #stanleypark

The park with joy, excitement and relaxing

Stanley park is the icon of the city Vancouver. This is a natural park with its unique features and attributes. one can walk from one side to other in about 2 hours. One will spend time right in the middle of nature. #vancouver #stanleypark #nature

Finished filming in Vancouver, time to fly back to Taipei.
