Have you visited famous places in Alberta?
We have lived in calgary but we don't know well about it. And when you can go to somewhere, we usually visit Lake Louise and Banff. Let you know about AB and famous places in AB.





First, Alberta is named after Princess Louise Caroline Alberta (1848–1939), who was the fourth daughter of Queen Victoria. Lake Louise, the village of Caroline, and Mount Alberta were also named in honour of Princess Louise.
-> I didn't know about symbolys of Alberta. Written by bottom of flag FORTIS ET LIBER means strong and free.



Second, This is famous places in canada. We call it "Writing-on-Stone National Park"
Near the Alberta/Montana border and just 44 km east of the small town of Milk River is Writing-on-Stone National Park. Canada recently nominated the park to UNESCO for World Heritage status. The park boasts over 50 stone-carved images created by the Blackfoot Native Americans, which date as far back as 7000 B.C.



Moreover, Do you know where "Lethbridge Japanese Gardens" is?
During World War II Canada gathered thousands of Japanese Canadians near Lethbridge. When the war ended many people decided to stay in the area. To make the huge land feel more like home they built a Japanese Garden near the center of the town and it has been a highlight for many tourists since.



In Alberta, there are many beautiful places. Although we couldn't go to famous places, we just know that places. When we back to our country, we can tell friends, family about AB. Actually, I haven't visited many places in canada yet. Hopefully, before I went to back korea, I want to visit interesting places.
