Canada, Here We Go!

Everyone seems to have an opinion on what Canadian landmarks are most famous in Canada and known around the world. Here is few destinations that tend to be in tourists mind.

First is Whistler-Blackcomb, Whistler.

The mountains of Whistler and Blackcomb Peak are unarguably, two of the most iconic landmarks in Canada and they’re home to the Whistler Blackcomb ski resort, which is one of the most famous skiing destinations in the world. You can do other fun outdoor pursuits such as wildlife watching onboard the gondola, hiking, biking, zip-line tours, and climbing.

Second is CN Tower, Toronto.

The CN Tower is one of the most popular tourist attractions in southern Ontario. CN Tower’s popularity isn’t surprising since it’s currently the third tallest tower in the world. The CN Tower is now even more famous because of the introduction of the edgewalk experience, which allows you to walk freely around the top of the tower.

Third is Parliament Hill, Ottawa.

Parliament Hill is another famous Canadian landmark known across the world mainly because it looks eerily similar to the Palace of Westminster in London England. The cool thing about Parliament Hill is walking around the gardens and taking the guided tour of the main building, which is worth the admission fee.

Fourth is Pier 21, Halifax.

Pier 21 has changed names to National Museum of Canada, which may be more of a meaningful name for tourists, but since locals still call it Pier 21. From a historic perspective, Pier 21 is a dream place to visit for history buffs because it was the main hub for immigrants to arrive into Canada. It also houses hundreds of documented records and stories of immigrants who were escaping the horrors of World War II.

Lastly is Olympic Stadium, Montreal

Montreal Olympic Stadium is another icon in Canada that you must visit not only because it hosted the opening/ closing ceremony for the 1976 summer Olympics, but also because the stadium is one of the most interesting architectural buildings you’ll come across in Canada.
