Banff

English · FrenchCAD $3 walks

A town of eight thousand people that a nation is not allowed to let grow, tucked inside its oldest national park. A hot spring a railway turned into a country's conservation movement, a baronial castle hotel built to sell the wilderness to people who would not rough it, and a main street that is, by federal law, a national park's shopping street.
