Banff National Park

There are four parts in Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks ; especially we focus on Banff National Parks.

Banff National Park was registered in 1885. It’s third oldest national park in the world. The first is Yellow Stone National Park in United States, the second is Royal National Parks in Australia. So it’s very old world heritage. It’s located in Province of Albert which is west of Canada.

There are many lakes and mountains in Banff National Park. Spas were discovered in the end of 19 century then transcontinental railway was made, Canadian Rocky was developed as a sightseeing city. Banff was a resort city which surrounded by four mountains, many people come there and enjoy shopping or golfing so on. Banff is located high latitude, so we can enjoy shopping by 9’oclock.

Many streets across Banff Avenue, they are named animal names such as Bear, Elk, and Moose. I feel tradition in this place.

Nagashima Spaland


Most famous attraction is steal dragon 2000. The top of height is 97m, and fastest speed is 153km/h. All length is 2497m, and biggest drop is 93.5m. I think it is too afraid for me to ride this attraction. White Cyclone is also famous. There are many scream attraction, but the attraction which are rides by child is also in there. Many famileis go there and enjoy their time.

Nagashima Resort also has a big pool. There are many type pools. There are many parts of the pool in this. For example, pools for children, the pool which uses the sea water. Many people visit this place, and enjoy playing the slider. It holds 82 days, July 4 to September 23.
We can enjoy the spar land and the jumbo pool in a day, and if we will go to both of them, the ticket gets cheap.
