More than just Instagram-Worthy: Canada's Most Scenic Places

I’ve always wanted to visit what seemed to be known as one of the friendliest countries in the world. R has told me so many nice things about Canada-- from its culture to food and to scenic destinations. Since I can’t wait to board the plane and take that half a day flight, I’ve made a short list of stopovers I (and you) have to visit. 

Most Scenic Places in Canada

Canada, the world’s second-largest country, may not carry the geographical diversity of the United States, but the maple-scented land has everything that makes it the most spectacular and amazing. Whether it is the temperate Pacific rain forests of British Columbia or the Rockies there are plenty of geological oddities and some of the most scenic places that can be found here in Canada. The landscapes range from snow-capped mountains, rugged coastlines to beautifully desolate prairies. And if you are worrying that accommodation could be a problem, lodging for tourists has never been an issue here as they can pick from the most high-end resorts to budget hotels. There is also a  wide range of cabins in Canada to suit every pocket and needs. 

Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario
Niagara-on-the-Lake lies at the center of the province’s wine region and is surrounded by superb wineries. Noted as one of the most well-preserved 19th-century towns, it is said that you should not miss walking through the town’s Victorian main street, where one comes across old-fashioned houses, vegetation and boutique shops. I can’t wait to visit some of the  lovely ornamental gardens and dine at the area’s sophisticated restaurants. But the one I look forward to the most is its outstanding Canadian theater event, the Shaw Festival.
