In front of Parliament Hill in Ottawa, the capital of Canada, the guards are performing the changing of the guard ceremony

I am Guan Hai Ting Tao tour + Global Traveler, please follow me! (This is the 1774th original travel photo post published in 1015 cities across 57 countries/regions on 5 continents) This changing of the guard ceremony is held daily during the summer (from early July to late August) and has become one of the major tourist attractions in Ottawa. The guard of honor for the changing of the guard consists of more than 400 members, who come from 86 Canadian Army regiments, 6 Royal Canadian Navy ships, and 6 Air Force squadrons. Every day at 10 a.m., the sound of Scottish bagpipes fills the air, and a team of guards marches proudly to the music from Wellington Street in front of the East Block of the Parliament Buildings, entering Parliament Hill. They wear traditional uniforms, march with traditional steps, play traditional military music, and meticulously perform the traditional changing of the guard ceremony. The Canadian public affectionately still calls them "Bearskin Guards." Address: Wellington St, Ottawa, ON K1A 0A9
