Culture vultures flock to the Art Gallery of Alberta to admire more than 6,000 priceless artworks, and to the Royal Alberta Museum with its astounding display of fur trade artifacts and Canada's most extensive collection of mounted birds. The country's largest living history museumFort Edmonton Parkfascinates history buffs as they stroll through the streets of four historic periods spanning 1846 to 1920, while downtown's eclectic neighbourhoods, such as Chinatown, the Avenue of Nations and Old Strathcona District, delight visitors from all walks of life. Travellers with kids won't be able to stay away from amusement parks Galaxyland and World Waterpark, both located at West Edmonton Mall (a major attraction in itself). Sports fans may try to time a visit to catch the Edmonton Oilers hitting the ice at Rexall Place, and road-trippers will get a kick out of passing by the World's Largest Western Boot... there truly is something for everyone.
But while Edmonton's museums, theatres, historic sites and parks can easily occupy one's time, it is also worth venturing outside the city's boundaries to discover the charms of Edmonton's surrounding communities.
JUST OUTSIDE THE CITY'S LIMITS
Skirting the eastern edge of Edmonton proper, the residential community of Sherwood Park draws visitors from the big city and beyond to its vibrant hub of arts and culture at Festival Place. Here, creative expression can be enjoyed in every form, from live music and dance to comedy and plays, performed by talented local, national and international artists.
