Guide to Calgary

map
Between the prairies and the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Canada lies the city of Calgary, on the Bow and Elbow rivers. With a population of over 1 million inhabitants, Calgary is well known as the gateway to the Rockies, and resorts such as Banff and Jasper, as well as for its background in the oil industry. Visit the Olympic Plaza, the site of the 1988 Olympic Games for a little ice skating, and don't miss the Calgary Stampede, an annual event in which all the fun of the Wild West hits the city, with a rodeo and wagon races!
