Must-Visit in Canada | The Sapphire of the Rocky Mountains

How can you miss the famous Lake Louise when you visit Banff National Park? The lake water contains minerals from the glaciers, so it presents a clear blue-green color under the sunlight, as magnificent as a sapphire! Not only is this place famous for its beautiful scenery, but it also has a romantic story! 🐳 Yiyu's Recommended Attractions⬇️⬇️⬇️ 📍Lake Louise ✅On the way to Lake Louise, we will occasionally see brightly colored trains running, which is the Canadian Pacific Railway. In 1882, Mr. Tom Wilson, an engineer of the Canadian Pacific Railway, discovered this beautiful lake that looked like a piece of jade in a fairyland and named it 'Emerald Lake'. In 1883, it was renamed Lake Louise. The lake was named after Princess Louise, the youngest daughter of Queen Victoria of England, who, despite her noble lineage and strong opposition from the royal family, fell in love with a commoner, Lorne. After their marriage, they came to Canada and became the youngest Governor General and his wife. To commemorate this beautiful princess, this beautiful lake was named Lake Louise. There is a Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise hotel by the lake, a typical Victorian-style building, just like a castle from a fairy tale, with an unbeatable window view that is very worth visiting! For an in-depth visit to the lakeside, you can hike, boat, or bike, with beautiful scenery all year round.
