About
Edmonton是加拿大Alberta省的省会，是一个充满活力的文化中心，以其庞大的West Edmonton Mall而闻名——这里曾是世界最大的购物中心——还有著名的Edmonton Folk Music Festival。这座城市是通往加拿大落基山脉的门户，拥有优秀的博物馆、繁荣的艺术场景，以及广阔的河谷公园地带，非常适合户外活动。游客可以享受从世界级戏剧演出到与Edmonton Oilers队一起观看激动人心的NHL曲棍球比赛等各种体验。
Edmonton is the capital of Alberta, in western Canada, and a city that suits both a short stay and a longer one. It sits on the North Saskatchewan River, and its character comes from a mix of big-city amenities, a lively arts scene and a green river valley that runs right through the urban area.
What draws visitors
- West Edmonton Mall, once the world's largest shopping centre, which is worth a visit for the sheer scale of it.
- The Edmonton Folk Music Festival, a well-known event that brings music fans to the city.
- Museums and a thriving arts scene, giving visitors a good range of indoor options.
- River valley parkland, with trails and open space well suited to walking, cycling and other outdoor activities.
Getting out of the city
Edmonton is also a gateway to the Canadian Rockies, so many travellers use it as a base before heading west into the mountains. If you plan a trip that combines city time with scenery, it makes a practical starting point.
Whether you come for the shopping, a festival weekend or a few days of museums and riverside walks, Edmonton offers enough variety to fill your time and a relaxed pace to enjoy it.
