Landmarks and sightseeing may not be the first things that come to mind when travelers think of Calgary, but that will change the moment you arrive here. The city's spectacular western mountain backdrop is one of the most striking you'll see anywhere, and with the Rocky Mountains waiting just an hour's drive out of town, they will most likely be chief among your list of landmarks to check out. Of course, a variety of hidden gems await within the city. Down in the Southwest you'll find a variety of Calgary's gorgeous and scenic natural parks. For some striking urban landmarks, try a stroll down Stephen Ave., one of Calgary's more historic areas. Just outside of downtown, a walk along the Bow River is sure to soothe the spirit of any traveler seeking a natural landmark to offset the hustle and bustle of city life. Whatever your pleasure, there's plenty of landmarks to intrigue your sense of adventure in Calgary!
