Visit Edmonton, Canada

Jump to:

Set on the northern shores of the Saskatchewan River, Edmonton is the capital of Alberta.

Its abundant quartzite was used by First Nations peoples to fashion tools and weapons and it was later at the heart of Canada’s richest fur producing lands, but today its wealth is built on 'black gold': oil.

Things to see and do in Edmonton

Fuelled by this underground asset Edmonton has boomed into a super-modern, climate-defying phenomenon. It is home to the world’s largest shopping centre, West Edmonton Mall, which numbers the world’s largest amusement park among its attractions.

The remarkable Muttart Conservatory uses distinctive glass pyramids to reproduce a variety of diverse ecosystems for visitors to experience, while in the late Victorian suburb of Old Strathcona they can stroll through the summer Farmers’ Market.
