Winnipeg is a city with a lot of different culture and fine museums including The Manitoba Museum of Man and Nature. Winnipeg has two-thirds of the population of Manitoba, and lies in the centre of the country. Close to Winnipeg is Grand Beach, which is located on a huge inland lake, seeing this wonder is reason enough to visit such a great city. All the main attractions are within walking distance of one another. Focusing on the museums and performing arts seems to be the main theme of this city. Located on the banks of the Red River, the city has a very outdoorsy feel, but within a few shorts steps you are also in the heart of the city. There is many examples of Canada's twentieth-century architecture, and the world's largest collection of Inuit art which can be viewed and the Winnipeg art gallery. Whatever the reason for visiting Winnipeg, there is a lot of culture and history, as well as beautiful scenery.
The Planetarium is used as a multi-purpose audio and visual theatre to provide astronomical and entertainment programs for everyone that visits the centre. This is more of a voyage then a site. If you have it in your to become an explorer and want to learn about Manitoba here is the best place to do so. You can watch the night sky from any point on earth and visit the planets and beyond.
This is a 95 acre multi purpose park, with two stages, paved walkways and other amenities. This is a summer event, as it takes place in June 19-June 28 and creates so much excitement of a big carnival. There are many competitions such as art, handcraft, music acts and talent shows. So whether coming to take part in adrenalin pumping rides, or to make your creations be seen and possibly be a winner in the competitions, the Red River Exhibition is the place to be.
May through September, the live thoroughbred racing is in full force. If horse racing is something exciting and pumps your adrenaline then this is the place to come and see. The friendly staff makes it all worth while, as they have created a "MVP-Most Valuable Patron" program where you will receive answers to every question and provide you with the assistance you need. For analysis and selection during the live racing, please refer to the Handicapper's Corner.
