Calgary Maps and Orientation
(Calgary, Alberta - AB, Canada)



The biggest and most prominent city within the Canadian state of Alberta, Calgary lies to the south-east of both Banff and Jasper, and on the southern side of Alberta. Calgary's downtown skyscrapers soar high and dominate the city's skyline, while the Canadian Rockies are a mere 50 miles / 80 km away and stand directly to the east.

Now topping one million, the population of Calgary has grown greatly in recent years, with the total population of the metropolitan area known as 'Greater Calgary' now being around 1.2 million. The city center itself lies on the southern banks of the Bow River, and south of Prince's Island.
