A sunny city, Calgary is set on the transition point of the Canadian Rockies foothills and prairies in Alberta. Founded by the Northwest Mounted Police in 1876 in response to a surge of whiskey makers who traded for furs from the natives, today the urban cowboys roll amid headquarters of oil and gas industries.
Famous Annual Rodeo - Calgary Stampede
Known for long, dry winters, Calgary hosted the Winter Olympic Games in 1988 and has also invested heavily in tourism. More than 3.1 million people now visit annually – you could grab a flight to Calgary and be one of them – for festivals and attractions, especially July's Calgary Stampede. It's a city readily navigated by bus and rail if not hiring a car and Calgary's popularity has also grown as it's the gateway to nearby mountain resort towns of Banff, Lake Louise and Jasper.
Jasper National Park
A quick guide to neighbourhoods to visit and things to see:
- The Beltine and 17th Avenue – amid an eclectic bunch of shops, boutiques, bars and restaurants, this is Calgary's party neighbourhood.
- Inglewood – Calgary's oldest neighbourhood and the site of the first city centre, it's now getting an "urban chic" vibe.
- Downtown – sports the Calgary Zoo and Telus World of Science.
- Prince's Island Park – is Calgary's largest inner-city park; in summer it hosts Shakespeare in the Park.
