| Parking - by William from Zimbabwe |
| Parking costs a heap downtown, if you can find it. Public transport is fine during the day but in the evening one sure needs your own wheels. The Light Rail Transit is free in the downtown centre and fares are pretty reasonable around Calgary. |
| Calgary Overview |
| Founded in 1875 as a North West Mounted Police post, Calgary is today a concrete and steel city with a population of about 800,000 of mostly easy-going laid-back folk, and combines all the magic of the legendary Mounties, cowboy’s and Indians, and oil barons. Situated on the junction of the Bow and Elbow rivers with the Rockies as a backdrop Calgary is one of the major prairie cities, with the warm Chinook winds giving it a pleasant winter. |
