Calgary is situated 200 miles (322km) north of the US border on the banks of the Bow River below the Rocky Mountains. Although Alberta’s second city, Edmonton, is the state capital, Calgary is the territory's commercial and cultural centre and offers visitors and inhabitants all the trappings of urban life along with the pleasure of enjoying the dramatic countryside that surrounds the city. Splendid national parks that flourish on its doorstep, act as a magnet for hikers, fishermen and lovers of the great outdoors. The city, sited on the Trans-Canada highway, is also the gateway to the Rocky Mountain resorts, which in winter attract skiers from all over the continent.
