Stories of town explorations.
"I will stand on the same mountaintop to breathe, feel and see the beauty of nature and experience once again the feeling of peace and serenity in my soul that mother nature brings!" 

It has been few years since I went to Banff [Alberta, Canada] but the breathtaking view of the mountains, waterfalls and the river valley still linger on my mind. This place has been one of the natural things that I have seen in amazement and awe. Another spectacular scenery that our mother nature has to offer.


Location Marked in Red
As I recall vividly, I was standing on one of the mountains surrounding the area. 

In a so called Sulphur mountaintop where I stood, I saw the view of the mountains, some parts covered with clouds and ice, the seemingly endless beautiful river valley which looked like a zigzag road leading the waters to God knows where (lol) and the castle-like hotels that look like ants. 

And when you look at it down below, it made me cry out WOW! What a view! And how great our Creator is!

For me, Banff is like a PARADISE on EARTH so to speak! Anyways, maybe some readers are wondering how I got to see the place. I did not climb the mountain nor rode on a helicopter or a plane to get there (maybe someday I will though. lol).

To get there, a Banff Gondola is available to ascend into the mountain. It is cable car that will transport people from another mountain to the Sulphur mountain.

Thanks to whoever invented cable cars, anybody can now set foot on a mountaintop without any diffuculty. Take note Guys, Gondola ride is sooooo much fun!



For more info about Banff....It is a town within Banff National Park in Alberta. Known for its mountainous surroundings and hot springs, it is one of Canada's most popular tourist destinations. Same as Jasper, it is also a destination for hiking, biking, skiing and other fun-filled stuff.

The United Nations declared Banff National Heritage site in 1985.


Although I have not been there for quite a while, for sure I will go visit it again in the summer and as always, I will stand on the same mountaintop to breathe, feel and see the beauty of nature and experience once again the feeling of peace and serenity in my soul that mother nature brings!

"Seeing the breathtaking view of the mountains and the beauty of nature, savoring the quietness and serenity of the place surely brought us peace, happiness and a feeling of more closeness and intimacy."

Even the residents themselves find it weird to see that the little town of Jasper in the province of Alberta in Canada with a little population of about 5,000 is the recipient of 20 million tourists annually.

For most people, Jasper is a place to go when you are seeking for adventure, excitement and fun in the province of Alberta, Canada. It offers adventures and activities every tourist and traveler will surely enjoy.

Jasper is the commercial hub of the Jasper National Park, the largest national park at the Canadian Rockies. Activities that you can try are hiking, trekking, rafting, helicopter ride, skiing and many more! 

All year round, and most especially summer time, this serene small town is filled with tourists up to a number of 20 million annually (according to one local we spoke with).

She said that it is kind of weird to see millions of tourists in their place with only a population of about 5 thousand. Anyways, on Easter, we decided to go to Jasper not just for fun but more for reflection (few tourists come around this time).


We rented a cute little cabin and we just spent quality time together. Seeing the breathtaking view of the mountains and the beauty of nature, savoring the quietness and serenity of the place surely brought us peace, happiness and a feeling of more closeness and intimacy!

Jasper is 362 kilometers west of Edmonton, Alberta, the capital city of the province. Jasper can be reached from Edmonton via long drive, train or bus.
