North America Information and Tourism

Canada stands in the northern area of North America, bordering the USA to the south. With ten main provinces and three territories, Canada is a vast country. Ottawa serves as the Canadian capital and is a graceful city, with much in the way of greenery, culture and important landmarks, such as the Parliament Hill buildings and the Supreme Court of Canada. Toronto is altogether more of a showy city, with soaring skyscrapers surrounding the CN Tower, which is currently the tallest free-standing structure anywhere on the planet.

The United Mexican States, better known as simply Mexico, is full of Latin American charm and character. Each year, millions of tourists marvel at Mexico's many ancient remains from past Aztec and Mayan civilisations. The Mexican landscape has something for everyone, with mountainous areas, deserts, glitzy modern cities and coastal resorts, where white sandy beaches and world-class scuba diving sites await.

The USA is the world's leading country and is located in North America, comprising some 50 large states.
