Journey from British Columbia's Fraser Valley to Alberta's vibrant capital
Edmonton, the capital city of Alberta, is known for its vibrant cultural scene, stunning river valley, and year-round festivals. As North America's northernmost major city, it offers a unique blend of urban sophistication and natural beauty.
The city boasts North America's largest stretch of urban parkland, with the River Valley being 22 times larger than New York's Central Park. Edmonton is also home to West Edmonton Mall, North America's largest shopping and entertainment complex, and a thriving arts and culture scene.
The best time to visit Edmonton is from June to early September when the weather is warm and the city comes alive with numerous festivals. Winter visitors can enjoy snow activities and the stunning Northern Lights.
