Canada – The hidden gem in America

United States of America may appears to be more popular among travelers, but if you travel further up to the north, you will be amazed by how high the standard of quality of travel destinations Canada has to offer.
For nature lovers, there are endless breathtaking landscapes and wildlife in Canada. If you think Japan has the most beautiful Autumn colour scene to inspire during Autumn, Canada is perhaps the second best destination to witness this seasonal gem. Energetic travelers could either hike up the steep rocky mountains for picturesque scenes such as the dramatic Hubbard Glacier or cruising out to the sea to view whales breaking the surface water.
