Calgary is the most populous city in Alberta and offers plenty for its diverse community of visitors and renters to experience. The Calgary Zoo is a great place to take kids and also makes for an excellent way for grown-ups to spend an afternoon. If you’re new to the city, there’s no better way to experience the city than atop Calgary Tower, which offers a revolving restaurant with 360 degree views of the city. Of course, during July, the Calgary Stampede becomes the focal point of the community and fully embraces the city’s cowboy culture with a rodeo, exhibition and festival.
