Location Taken: Banff, Alberta, Canada
Time Taken: June 2010
There’s a river on the edge of the town of Banff. It’s got a beautiful waterfall, magnificent tall stone cliffs around it, and even more spectacular background mountains.
It’s no wonder that they build a resort town here, and even less of a wonder that there’s a national park here too, named after the town. And that’s even before you factor in the hot springs that speckle the area, a few of which are right near the town.
It’s a touristy area, but of a high quality. It’s one of those resort towns you wouldn’t mind living in at all, which is not always the case. It’s certainly worth a visit.
And if you do visit, spend a spare half-hour to wander over to the river and the waterfall. It’s quite worth it.
