The city of Edmonton is located in western Canada in the province of Alberta (it is the capital of Alberta), not far from Jasper, the charming national park in the Canadian Rockies.
Edmonton is a pleasant and welcoming city, but its number one attraction is undoubtedly West Edmonton Mall which is the largest shopping center in North America! A true paradise for shopping lovers. It has more than 800 shops and services and about 100 restaurants and food stalls. But not only shopping lovers are invited to this huge place. Under one roof you will also find a special hotel, a lovely water park (indoor and heated of course), an amusement park, mini-golf courses, bowling, a pirate ship, an ice skating rink, an aquarium, a submarine ride, dolphin shows and a host of other attractions.
