Downtown Winnipeg

City centre Winnipeg brings together business hustle and cultural treasures at the heart of Canada's gateway to the west. The striking Canadian Museum for Human Rights stands near historic Exchange District buildings. Hockey fans gather at Canada Life Centre while art lovers explore the Winnipeg Art Gallery's renowned Inuit collection. Walk underground during winter months to stay warm while moving between glass towers and cultural venues. The confluence of the Red and Assiniboine Rivers at The Forks offers a peaceful contrast to the urban landscape. Visit museums by day and enjoy diverse dining options as evening falls.
