MY DREAM PLACE: Canada.

Did you know that Canada has the world’s largest coastline of 202.080 km?

This and other interesting facts Canada has that it makes it my favorite place. Although I have never visited I have it pending in my bucket list as a destination to visit it. Geographically speaking Canada has many places to visit such as the province of Ontario where you could visit Toronto, Niagara Falls, Ottawa (which is the capital of Canada and the fourth largest city). In the province of Québec one can visit Montreal and in the province of British Columbia you can visit Vancouver.


You dont want to miss out the National Gallery, National Arts Centre where they offer a space for national and international artist that exhibit precious and large works of art.  Make sure you go to watch the northern lights in places like Saskatchewan which is one of the best points of observation for this kind of activity.






Every time I think about this beautiful country the first thing that comes to mind is the Hôtel de Glace, located in Québec. 
I´d recommend to going to this hotel, is built every year where they use around 400 tons of ice and 12 000 tons of snow. And my favorite part is that every summer it melts away and every winter it is rebuilt.
 
Spend the night there is quite expensive but I think it totally worth it as is a life time experience, so If you object to paying lots of money, don’t stay here.






Canadian people are very open minded and I think it has to do with the fact that they are rich in culture, folklore, arts and so on. Its culture has been influenced by the French and British traditions. They speak so many languages: such as English, French, and Portuguese.

A friend said the food in Canada is characterized by its delicious dishes.
She encouraged all foreigners to visit Québec and taste the meat pie and all types of pea soups that they have.
She also said that in Montreal they have a variety of smoked meats, but it is a little bit overpriced.

In my case, my favorite one is Ontario because even though they don’t have a variety of dishes in their diet per se they do have maple syrup which I love. All I know for sure is that if I get to visit Canada someday I will try their maple syrup with pancakes!!

To finalize, Canada has a lot of fun activities to do, a lot of places to visit, food, people, arts, sports and so on. This is why Canada is my dream place. I don’t think people get enough of Canada.

Did you know…? A bear cub named Winnipeg was exported from Canada to the London Zoo in 1915. A little boy named Christopher Robin Milne loved to visit Winnipeg (or Winnie for short) and his love for the bear cub inspired the stories written by his father, A.A. Milne, about Winnie-the-Pooh.
