The Alberta Legislative Grounds originated as Fort Edmonton, a hot spot for the fur traders of the 1800's. Today it serves as the government centre for all of Alberta where provincial parliament members gather to discuss policies that affect all of Alberta. The grounds offer wonderful views and beautiful landscaping enjoyed by Edmontonians and visitors alike! Summer shines the spotlight on their grand fountains and breathtaking gardens. The twinkling lights and charming skating rinks really emphasize Edmonton as THE Winter City. This tour is one you do not want to miss!
