Banff National Park is Canada’s oldest and most famous national park.
It was founded in 1885 after the discovery of the Cave and Basin Hot Springs.
From humble beginnings as a 26 square kilometre hot springs reserve, Banff National Park now consists of 6,641 square kilometres of unparalleled mountain scenery nestled in the heart of the magnificent Canadian Rockies.
Each year, millions of visitors come to Banff to marvel at the emerald waters of Lake Louise, walk amongst the flower-filled heavens at Sunshine Meadows, and drive beneath the towering jagged peaks lining the Ice fields Parkway between Banff and Jasper.
Ten thousand years ago, natives camped on the shores of the Vermilion Lakes beneath the windswept peak of Mount Rundle.
They were the only people here to enjoy the mountain landscape, the beautiful sunrises and the hot springs.
Nearly ten millennia later, a struggling nation forged a crazy dream of connecting itself from sea to sea with steel rails, and from this railway venture was born Canada’s most famous park, Banff National Park.
Banff National Park contains some of the most spectacular mountain scenery in the world.
Snow-capped peaks, glistening glaciers, ice fields, alpine meadows, blue cold crystal clear lakes, raging rivers, mineral hot springs, deep canyons, hoodoos and sweeping vistas are just one part of the allure of Banff National Park.
The park is also the home of some of North America’s wildest creatures, including black and grizzly bears, caribou and wolves.
Banff and Lake Louis are two major towns in Banff National Park.
As the largest town in the park, Banff is “Canada’s Highest Town” at 1384 m (4540 ft) above sea level.
Lake Louise, with its blue-green water set against the stark backdrop of Victoria Glacier, is the highest permanent settlement in Canada at 1,536m (5,039 feet) above the sea level and probably the most beloved and most photographed scene in the Canadian Rockies.
In Banff National Park, driving through the Bow Valley Parkway, one of the world’s most scenic highways, is a good opportunity to see animals, particularly deer, bears and moose.
Banff National Park is part of the UNESCO Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site.
班夫国家公园是加拿大历史最悠久、最著名的国家公园。它成立于 1885 年，当时发现了洞穴和盆地温泉。从最初的 26 平方公里温泉保护区开始，班夫国家公园现在由 6,641 平方公里的无与伦比的山地风光组成，坐落在雄伟的加拿大落基山脉的中心。每年，数百万游客来到班夫，惊叹于路易斯湖的翠绿色湖水，漫步在阳光草甸鲜花盛开的天堂中，并在班夫和贾斯珀之间的冰原大道沿线高耸的锯齿状山峰下行驶。一万年前，土著人在伦德尔山迎风的山峰下的朱砂湖岸边露营。他们是唯一在这里欣赏山地景观、美丽的日出和温泉的人。近一万年后，一个苦苦挣扎的国家建立了一个疯狂的梦想，即用钢轨将自己从一个海洋连接到另一个海洋，而从这个铁路事业中诞生了加拿大最著名的公园——班夫国家公园。班夫国家公园拥有世界上一些最壮观的山地风光。白雪皑皑的山峰、闪闪发光的冰川、冰原、高山草甸、蓝色寒冷的清澈湖泊、奔腾的河流、矿物温泉、深邃的峡谷、石林和广阔的视野只是班夫国家公园魅力的一部分。该公园也是北美一些最狂野生物的家园，包括黑熊和灰熊、驯鹿和狼。班夫和路易斯湖是班夫国家公园的两个主要城镇。作为公园中最大的城镇，班夫是“加拿大最高的城镇”，海拔 1384 米（4540 英尺）。路易斯湖以其蓝绿色的湖水为背景，与维多利亚冰川的鲜明背景形成对比，是加拿大海拔最高的永久定居点，海拔 1,536 米（5,039 英尺），并且可能是加拿大落基山脉中最受欢迎和拍摄最多的景色。在班夫国家公园，驾车穿过弓谷公园大道（世界上最风景优美的公路之一）是观赏动物的好机会，尤其是鹿、熊和驼鹿。班夫国家公园是联合国教科文组织落基山公园世界遗产地的一部分。
