The Park has an assortment ofactivities, rides, food, civic museums, and heritage architecture emphasizing the cultural significance of early Prairie settlement/life.It's like taking a step back in time, and it's worthevery dollar. 11/10 do recommend.

It looks like a tunnel bridge, and it is also a transportation hub for passing through the other side of the river. The color of this bridge is very eye-catching, with red intersecting structures. Vehicles cannot pass through, but people and bicycles can pass freely. There are lights at night, and Fengjia feels magnificent.
[Scenery] Very beautiful

it's a nice place to visit not only for kids but for adults who love animals as well. i went here alone, and it was nice to have a walk and see the animals at the same time. sadly,the pandas are gone, but i got to see them before they're gone.
The Calgary Zoo is quite fun. This zoo has many American animal resources. The whole zoo is also very beautiful. The design of each area is relatively reasonable. The number of animals in the zoo is also quite rich. You can have a good visit here.

Stephen Street is located in downtown Calgary, not far from Chinatown. It is an east-west avenue about one kilometer long, lined with shops, bars, and restaurants. Police officers patrol the streets from time to time, either on foot or on bicycles.
A pedestrian street in the city center. It is quite bleak in winter. There are no restaurants placing tables and chairs outside. It is estimated that it will be very lively in summer. It seems that people in Canada are also hibernating in winter.
