Travellers are often inspired by the sights of a new country, so with aesthetics in mind, tour book company Rough Guides turned to their readers and social media followers to choose this year鈥檚 . And our own 鈥渢rue north strong and free鈥� made quite the showing: Canada was named the second-most beautiful country in the world.
Here鈥檚 what Rough Guides had to say about our eye-catching country:
鈥淚n a close call for second place is Canada: home of lumberjacks, beavers and maple syrup (if you believe everything you read). Of course, there鈥檚 much more on offer in Canada, not least its mixture of raw beauty and majestic landscapes. The Yukon Territory is a place of great wilderness, while B.C. mountains draw skiers and snowboarders in their thousands.鈥�
Also citing the Instagram-appeal of Lake Louise, and the big city vibes of Toronto and Montreal, Rough Guides also grabs a quote from 91原创-based @ToursByLocals on Twitter, who proclaim while there are 鈥渟o many beautiful places in the world, but I鈥檓 still blown away by our hometown in B.C., Canada.鈥�
Of course, we鈥檒l join in with the local pride about beautiful B.C. and 91原创. Cond茅 Nast鈥檚 U.S. and U.K. readers also named 91原创 in the world again in 2018. If you landed on this item because you live elsewhere on the map and are planning a trip to Canada, take note: we鈥檙e also one of the in the world to visit.
