Situated in North America, Canada is the second largest country in the world with a population of around 36.95 million, a rather small population considering the sheer size of the country.
It has long been a popular country for people to visit for holidays, gap years, and business trips, to name but a few. Though deciding where to visit in Canada can be a tough one.
Many people opt for the most popular destinations, as they are the places that have been tried and tested. We’re rounding up some of the best places in Canada worth a visit.

CANADA MUST SEE 1:Toronto
Toronto, Canada’s largest city, truly has so much to offer.
The city is hugely multicultural, with over 200 nationalities represented, making it a city that is welcoming to all types of visitors from all across the globe. Toronto is a pretty busy place, life is happening here.
That said, the business creates buzz and conversation between Canadians and visitors alike. You’ll learn the majority of useful Canadian information when in Toronto, as locals are generally happy to share their knowledge and experiences with you to ensure you enjoy their city.
A slight downside is that the weather in Toronto isn’t exactly ideal all year round. During the winter months, it gets rather chilly.
If you don’t deal well with the cold, your best bet would be to visit the city during the warmer months, otherwise, you’ll be facing bitterly cold temperatures and ice storms which are, believe it or not, a pretty regular occurrence.

It boasts favorable weather most months of the year, making it a suitable location for those hoping to travel later in the year, whilst avoiding the bitter cold found in other regions in Canada.
Vancouver is a lively city with an abundance of things to see and do. If you’re the adventurous type and enjoy visiting scenic spots, there are world-class ski resorts (for Europe, check Slovenia’s ski resorts!) located just a short distance from downtown Vancouver. This city really gives you a taste of the sheer natural beauty Canada has to offer.
The city is known for being home to Stanley Park, Vancouver’s largest urban park, surrounded by waters. There’s a range of indoor and outdoor activities to do here, including hiking and swimming to name but a few.
CANADA MUST SEE 3: Niagara Falls
Attracting around 30 million visitors each year, Niagara Falls is a stunning natural Canadian attraction.
It consists of three waterfalls known famously as ‘American Falls, ‘Bridal Veil Falls’ and the ‘Canadian Horseshoe Falls’, all of which are collectively referred to and more commonly known as Niagara Falls.
The only falls that can possibly compete are the Iguazu Falls in Brazil!
It is truly a natural phenomenon, located on the border of Ontario and New York in the United States, making it accessible for all kinds of people. Experiencing the magic of Niagara Falls is unlike anything else. It is a must-see in Canada.
