Edmonton (AB)

Edmonton is the capital of the Canadian province of Alberta and the fifth largest city in Canada. The city at the North Saskatchewan River features numerous parks and can easily be explored in one or two days, even without a car. From the Fairmont Hotel MacDonald, a luxury hotel with a good coffee bar, the 100 Street Funicular, a glass elevator, leads down to the parks along the river. Do not miss a trip to the “Historical District” of Strathcona, since 1912 incorporated neighborhood.
