Canada's Unmissable Icons

This collection spans Canada’s major urban centers and natural wonders, featuring Vancouver’s 405-hectare Stanley Park and the historic Victorian architecture of Montreal’s Saint-Louis Square. In Toronto, the Royal Ontario Museum showcases world culture alongside the Gothic-inspired St. Michael’s Cathedral Basilica. The list highlights diverse geography, from the coastal Promenade of Governors in Quebec City to the alpine heights of Sulphur Mountain in Banff National Park. Iconic landmarks like the sails of Canada Place and the glacial waters of Jasper’s Maligne Lake represent the country’s maritime and mountain heritage.
