Calgary: a city that emanates an exciting urban vibe at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. Surrounded by the profound beauty of sculpted natural landscapes and not far from Banff National Park, this cowboy-style metropolis that’s home to the famous annual Calgary Stampede boasts an incomparable urban/nature balance.

And when it’s time to give your legs a rest from the great outdoors, take a stroll through Calgary’s hip ‘hood of East Village. This recently revitalized historic district hums with a vibrant local scene, renowned restaurants and Calgary's new Central Library, a jewel of architecture and design. And as if that weren’t enough, Calgary also boasts the title of Canada's largest city with the youngest population, as well as the city with the highest number of sunny days. We’ve given it the unofficial title of “depression-free city”!
