Banff is a resort town located within Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada. Situated in the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, the town was established in 1885 during the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The area gained prominence after the discovery of natural hot springs, which led to the creation of Canada's first national park.

Today, Banff combines its rich natural heritage with a vibrant cultural scene. The town features several cultural institutions that preserve and showcase the region's history, indigenous heritage, and artistic traditions. The Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies plays a significant role in documenting the area's cultural and natural history, while the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity serves as an important hub for artistic development and performance.

The town's architecture reflects its historical development, with many buildings maintaining the rustic mountain style that has characterized Banff since its early days as a tourist destination.
