Beautiful Places in Alberta that will blow your mind

Canada is considers as one of the most beautiful country in the world. There are numerous beautiful places to visit and even walking on the streets relax your soul and give immense amount of peace to your mind. The sightseeing of mountains at the horizon while sitting in a public transport mesmerised you and take your soul away from you. But, we people tend to ignore all this beautiful things of nature and surrounded ourselves in tech things. We never go out and try to feel true beauty of nature. After having this experience and observation I realized there is no luxury lies in having luxurious things like a expensive iphone or luxurious car instead true luxury lies is in the nature.

 Stick with me and here I am sharing with you the most beautiful places to Visit:
1. Banff National Park:

Bird view of Banff National park
People insisted me that this is photoshopped but trust me this is real. It is in one of the most beautiful places in canada. Established in 1885 located in Rocky Mountains and  110-180 kilometres west of calgary in the province of Alberta. It was the canada's first national park and world's third. There are lots of activities you can do like hiking, climbing, golf, fishing in banff and lake louise, Biking in banff and lake louise, cross country skiing, dogsledding, horseback riding, paddling, scenic drives and the list goes on.

 There are several hotels where you can stay as per your convenience. you can select hotels by comparing rates on https://www.tripadvisor.in/Hotels-g154910-Banff_National_Park_Alberta-Hotels.html

 I went with my sister for round trips, So, the need for a hotel booking didn't arise as we used to take several trips there. This is the best site where you can get reasonable fare so far I know.

 There's a beautiful banff townsite acting as a service centre for tourists visiting the park


 2. Moraine Lake :
I have been to several lakes there and each time i am having difficulty to recognise which one is what. As cause in banff there are numerous lakes you will see on the way. One is Moraine lake also. And is located in Banff national park between the valley of Ten peaks.  Lake displays a beautiful blue hue when it is at full capacity, due to ‘rock flour’ or ‘glacial flour’, tiny particles of rock, in the lake refracting light.

 Moraine lake area is the home to trail for hiking, as well as Moraine Lake lodge which has accommodation that can be rented for short getaways.

 3. Jasper National Park:

It is the largest National park in the canadian Rockies. The weather was worst that day i was with my brother in law and my sister with her two hyperactive kids. One was just of one and a half months. And the elder one is so much fascinated about camera that he hardly let us to take pictures. So, this time me and my sister decided to go one by one so that we could keep the new born baby warm and away from the cold and of course to keep the elder baby also inside the car so that we could take pictures of us. On this trip we didn't let those kids out of the car. How mean we are .... haha

You know what at last when we were following the same pattern to go one by one, the toddler had got some guesses why we were going one by one and I remember when my turn came my sis join the kids and I went with my brother in law to capture some pics and he started screaming a lot and we were just like in hustle to take pictures asap and get into the car. This was one of the most hilarious and funny moments of the trip.
There are hotels you can stay at very reasonable prices find at https://www.tripadvisor.in/Hotels-g154917-Jasper_National_Park_Alberta-Hotels.html

 Yoho National Park

 Okay let me be honest here: I hadn't even heard of yoho National Park before this trip. I knew Banff, and that was pretty much it. But what a beautiful surprise Yoho turned out to be! It's connected to Banff, and if you keep following the Trans-Canada Highway from Lake Louise (instead of taking the icefields Parkway up towards Jasper), you'll drive through it, too.

Natural Bridge

we turned off from highway 1 just past the town of field for a little detour into the mountains to hopefully see another glacial lake. On the way, we came upon Natural Bridge, which is exactly what it sounds like - a natural rock formation that spans the kicking horse River like a Bridge. This ended up being a fantastic stop!

Glacier National Park
As we continued on towards Revelstoke, the skies became cloudier and we happened upon a lot of mountain roads that were still closed from the harsh winter Canada is still recovering from. We did make one stop, though.

Trail of the Cedars

This short hiking trail takes you through a grove of trees on a raised boardwalk. It was wonderfully quiet and green — and my sister even spotted a bear that we startled (lucky for us, she only spotted its backside).

I can only imagine how much time you could spend in these parks in the summer, when everything is open!
Now that I've finally been to these places, I'm already ready to go back. Just maybe with less ice next time…

How to budget your Travel

There are many factors that contribute to the cost of your trip and every traveler is different. Some people will tell you it's not possible to predict how much your trip will cost. This simply isn't true. While there are many variables that will effect how much you spend, budgeting a trip is like budgeting anything else in life. You have to account for your own personal variations and preferences, but having a budget is crucial to making sure your trip doesn't financially spin out of control. That being said, it is hard to exactly predict a specific cost, but it is possible to get fairly close. If you want to create a detailed breakdown of how much your trip will cost, you'll need to gather some resources. Keep in mind that it is impossible to foresee every expense. Remember, long term travel is about staying flexible. If you plan out your expenses to the very last detail, then you're probably going to have to plan your actual trip to this detail, and that is def
