I also found that from Jasper to Banff, a distance of only more than 100 kilometers, takes 5 hours. Is it because of the closure of the road at night? I don't know how it is in the daytime ?

Currently the biggest problem I encountered and hope everyone knows, today from Jasper to play out 93 Glacier Avenue to reach near Lake Louise normally want to pass through the nearby highway exit through Field to reach Golden, but the highway has been closed causing to go from Lake Louise back to Banff. The middle of the highway goes to the hot springs of Radium, more than 100 kilometers, in the complete darkness of the mountains, it is very challenging, and it is not easy to follow the car. Even my 20-year-old driver feels quite difficult, and there is also a lot of pressure from the heavy truck behind. The cars in this area have all changed lanes. Last week, someone said it was blocked for five hours from Golden to Banff. Combined with my situation today, friends from Jasper or Banff back to Vancouver should be fully prepared ? Canada Q&A

We arrived at Moraine Lake at 5:09 am the day before yesterday and managed to find a parking space. I don't know when they closed the road, but it was closed before 7 am the day before yesterday, so we left Banff at 4:15 am the second day. There were many cars on the road heading to Moraine Lake. In order to get in, they really put in a lot of effort. We came out at 9 am in the morning, and there were many cars parked on the side of the road. When we arrived at the intersection, the road was also closed. The entry fee for each person on the bus was 6 Canadian dollars, and there were one or two hundred people in the queue. Seeing so many people, all interest was lost ? Canada Q&A

In fact, it's almost the same as in China. If you are a good driver in China, you will have no problem in Canada! When you rent a car, the website will tell you about the traffic rules and insurance in Canada. The service is very good. There is no toll on Canadian highways. The drivers there drive very strictly. When our domestic traffic is also like this, it will be a real strong country. Gasoline is cheaper than in China, about 5.6 RMB per liter, and there are differences in different places. Remember to fill up the gas (87 octane) if you have the chance ? Canada Q&A
