Description: | Where can you visit the graves of wrestling royalty? Go on a hunt for manhole covers and sidewalk stamps? Fish and surf downtown? Calgary may be home to the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth, but it's so much weirder than people know. 111 Places in Calgary That You Must Not Miss takes you on adventures across a city that is full of secrets and surprises. Walk in the footsteps of Calgary’s most flamboyant, diamond-covered madam. Pay homage at the grave of the region’s first Black cowboy, who became a legendary rancher. And admire an important buffalo hide robe at an Indigenous museum at the southwestern city limits. Learn about the birth of the Caesar – Calgarians know it’s neither an emperor nor a salad, but Canada’s most beloved cocktail. Discover the magic of Stampede Park when the rodeo is not in town. Beware of a ghostly lady who haunts a historic mansion. And find out if you’re brave enough to try a mouthful of prairie oysters. Grab your toque, your sunscreen, and a friend, and go exploring. Calgary''s true energy is all around you. |
