Calgary Calgary, the southern gateway to the Rockies, is a friendly and welcoming city, located where Alberta's prairies meet the mountains. It is a city that offers a wide range of attractions, upscale shopping, diverse cultural traditions and fine local and international cuisine. Calgary, as well as being known for hosting the 1988 Winter Olympics, is famous for the annual Calgary Stampede, which showcases all the thrills of the rodeo world. The Stampede is the biggest show of its kind, but also features amusement rides, chuckwagon racing and First Nations exhibits. Whilst notable as the gateway to the Rockies, Calgary's own attractions such as the Calgary Tower, Canada Olympic Park and Eau Claire Market should not be overlooked.
