This Canadian city is a big draw amongst tourists thanksto its natural endowments and idiosyncratic events.                             And if you thought the only shopping area in the world was Singapore or Dubai, think again. Calgaryhas one of the world’s greatest shopping districts in the dynamic Eau Claire area with over60 stores, services, and restaurants, and as many as six Cineplex screens.There are some great luxury hotels in the vicinity too, like the SheratonSuites Eau Claire. Catering to the well-heeled, this five star luxury hotel isgreatly sought after due to its location. The lovely white soft linen and thesandstone tiled bathroom are truly enticing.                                                                          If you are in time for the Calgary Stampede you might preferto stay in the Westin Calgary which is one of the few five star hotels thatwill give you a special offer for the event. The Calgary Stampede happens to bea festival, rodeo, and exhibition rolled into one; it is also one of the mostspectacular shows held on earth every July. Don’t miss the Stampede Parade onthe opening day as it is truly colorful and peculiar to the ethos of the place.                                                                                                                   The Westin Calgary also has a lovely pool where you canrelax and enjoy yourself. Rather interestingly, this luxury hotel is dividedinto two with one half which is quite ancient and comprises the larger suites.The second half has smaller but modern rooms. The Eau Claire Market is prettyapproachable from this luxury hotel.                                                                                                           The slightly la di dacrowd, however, would prefer to stay at an ‘icon’ five star luxury hotel likethe Fairmont Palliser. The rooms are large and comfortable and there is atraditional lobby that actually looks quite cool. What is more, there is also aluxury spa beneath the lobby that you can avail of and relax in.                                                                                                                    From the Fairmont Palliser you can walk over to the Calgary Tower where a dekko from the observationterrace is a must- the city looks spectacular from up top. There are 762 stepsthat take you there but before you panic let it be known that there are twoelevators waiting in attendance to take you up in a jiffy.                                                                                                                     Going past the CalgaryTower into Chinatown you will findyourself walking beside the banks of the Bow River.A leafy paradise, surely. Do take the time to drive up into the Canadian Rockies withits spread of national parks and snow-topped mountains. The scenic splendor iscalculated to leave the most seasoned traveler breathless. The only downside(during summer) is that its hilly town of Banff tends to get frightfullycrowded while hotel prices shoot up sky high.  Away from the hustle-bustle of the town, you might want totake a walk in Johnson’s Canyon, one of those rare beauty spots practicallyuntouched by human civilization. Hikers, of course, love the Kanaskis andskiers sites like Lake Louise.Calgary,in sum, is a great tourism place.
