Winnipeg, the capital of Manitoba, Canada, lies between the Red and Assiniboine rivers, 40 miles southwest of Lake Winnipeg. The diversity of this cosmopolitan city easily dominates the cultural life in Manitoba. Winnipeg’s industrial growth has been stimulated by the availability of cheap hydroelectrical power and excellent transportation facilities such as the Trans-Canada Highway and Winnipeg’s international airport.

Winnipeg is home to entertainment options including a symphony orchestra, the Manitoba Opera, the Royal Winnipeg Ballet, and the Manitoba Theatre Center. Other attractions locals love to visit include the Canadian Museum of Human Rights, the Assiniboine Park Zoo, and the Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada. For nature and wildlife, check out Fort Whyte Park, Leo Mol Sculpture Park for stunning sculptures in nature, and the Forks National Historic Site for its tree-lined walkways owned and operated by Parks Canada.
