Maple Leaf Viewing in Ottawa
The beauty of Ottawa's maple leaves is a precious gift bestowed on the city in autumn. Walking through the streets and alleys of Ottawa, you will find that both the banks of the ancient canal and the quiet park paths are covered with layers of colorful maple leaves. These maple leaves gradually transition from emerald green to golden yellow, orange-red, and finally turn into deep purple-red, just like the paint on the palette. Here, tourists can take a cruise ship to travel on the Rideau Canal. The maple leaves on both sides are as hot as flames, reflected on the sparkling water, and set off the ancient bridges and buildings; or you can choose to hike through the greenway, enjoy the various forms of maple leaves along the way, and feel the wonders of nature.Canada · Ottawa

Visiting the Canadian Parliament was a great experience. The building's exterior is exquisite with delicate stone carvings, and the interior chambers feature spectacular dome paintings. The guided tours provided clear explanations of federal history, and the free reservation system made it easy to book admission.

I went to the Governor General's Palace of Canada twice. The first time was just to check in, and the second time was because I saw in a travel note that there were trees planted here by two Chinese leaders, so I went there specifically to look for them one by one, but still couldn't find them.

A must see and do if you are in Ottawa. It is very relaxing and peaceful stroll. We are here in the fall and with the colourful leaves, it felt fresh and beautiful scenery.

The National Gallery of Canada is not very large, with two floors, divided into modern art, indigenous culture and art, American, French, and Dutch galleries; even if you just want to browse, it is best to set aside 3 hours. The gallery houses works by Van Gogh, Picasso, Monet, and Renoir.
