*** About Calgary: Calgary is a cosmopolitan Alberta city with numerous skyscrapers, which owes much of its rapid growth to its status as the center of Canada’s oil industry. However, it’s still steeped in the western culture that earned it the nickname “Cowtown,” evident in its July Calgary Stampede, one of Canada’s largest rodeos and festivals. The city also boasts a plethora of green spaces, with expansive parks and a developed pathway system along the banks of the Bow River, providing a scenic and natural counterpoint to the city’s urban architecture.
