Calgary - Canadá - Destinations

Calgary, snow and mountains.

Calgary, a city located at the foot of the Rocky Mountains that was founded in 1884 and incorporated into Canada ten years later, is a unique place. Its creation as a mining town and the appearance of oil, its main economic resource, quickly made it one of the most important cities in Canada.
