The sophisticated city that grew out of the Canadian West, Calgary balances the modern and the traditional with pioneer charm. For the full western experience, show up in time for the annual Calgary Stampede, complete with rodeos. Year-round you'll find abundant shopping, dining and nightlife; a short drive away are some of Canada's finest national parks.

This piece of art, right downtown, is a gorgeous work, You can walk inside it, walk around it, see it from every angle! So impressive!

A beautiful piece of the Calgary skyline. I didn't do anything here except view the building amongst the other buildings in Calgary and it certainly stands out!

Not all public buildings can live up to the poetry of this Snohetta designed masterpiece. The LRT slips under it unobtrusively. The curved wood slats both draw you in and help you look out. The Children's section is full of corners and nooks and crannies for discovery. The path you take walking through the space around and around the central atrium is continually evolving, until you reach the reading room at the top. The way the windows are shaped and how that expresses itself on the inside is sublime. A beautiful place to sit and take in a book.

This is such a great space for all seasons. In the winter it's free ice skating. In the summer it's a spray pool. Perfect for cooling off in the heat of the day. It's a great piece of history reminding people of the 1988 Olympics. Read names of people that donated to the park on the bricks! Olympic Plaza also hosts several events every year. One of my favourite parts of the city!

This 35 block stretch of 17th Ave SE is a Business Revitalization Zone (BRZ). Enhancements include murals, a street clock, and improvements to streetscape. Many other BRZs in Calgary (Kensington, Uptown 17, 4th St) have been very successful. International Avenue is also involved in the very successful Globalfest fireworks competition and multicultural festival.
