Winnipeg

Winnipeg sits right at the heart of Canada, where two great rivers meet and where the country’s history runs deep. This prairie city has a bold, resilient character, shaped by blazing summers, famously freezing winters, and centuries of people gathering at The Forks, a lively riverside spot that has welcomed visitors for thousands of years. Nearby, the Canadian Museum for Human Rights rises like a piece of living sculpture, telling powerful stories about fairness and dignity that matter to everyone on the planet.

Winnipeg is also a city full of surprising stories. A bear cub from here once captured the heart of a young boy named Christopher Robin, inspiring one of the most beloved characters in children’s literature. You can spot polar bears and arctic wolves at the zoo, explore grand historic streets in the Exchange District, and gaze up at the gleaming Golden Boy statue watching over the city. Winnipeg is proof that big adventures can start right in the middle of the map.
