Winnipeg Tourism & Travel Guide
• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide for Winnipeg & Area, Manitoba.
Welcome to Winnipeg & Area!
Winnipeg is one of Canada's most culturally vibrant urban centres, yet it sometimes receives an unfair reputation because of the notoriously long, cold Manitoban winters. What many don't realize is that Winnipeg is situated near several amazing beaches, including Grand Beach, a heavenly white-sand destination that enjoys sizzling, sunny weather in the summer months. Located at the geographical centre of Canada, Winnipeg is easily accessed from destinations around the globe. Winnipeg's history comes alive at the Manitoba Museum, which has nine galleries displaying historical artifacts and replicas in a series of interactive displays. Few can visit Winnipeg without noticing the unique architecture of the Royal Canadian Mint. Take a tour and learn where Canadian coins, and the coins of several foreign countries, come from. Treasure seekers should seek out The Forks, a funky market located at the junction of the Assiniboine and Red Rivers, and one of the city's most popular gathering places.Tourist Attractions
