This park is just south of MacEwan University and stretches from 104 Avenue NW to Jasper Avenue, making for a nice stroll.
It's on the corner of 105th Street and Jasper Avenue (neighbouring Sobey's) and is well paved with some neat local art and tree scenery. Nice for a quiet relaxing break after shopping your butt off in downtown or having an outdoor meal!
Hockey reigns supreme in Alberta, even when "the Oil"'s not playing well (or being mismanage, depending on who you ask), the city still can't resist watching the game. The shiny new Rogers Place was opened in 2016--a marvelous facility for fans and players. As most fans will point out, the Oilers have won five Stanley Cups, with hockey legend Wayne Gretzky as the centerpiece of the team for the first four. However since the most recent title was in 1990, the faithful fans are hungry for another cup after years of suffering. Hope in the form of young superstar Connor McDavid has returned.
The local West Coast League team plays during summer at Re/Max field.

A nice quiet movie experience with all the amenities of the big theatres.
Attached to Rogers Place, has what you'd expect from a casino plus some good restaurants.
