Alberta, a province in western Canada, the westernmost of the Canadian Prairie provinces; It limits the north with the Territories of the Northwest; to the east, with Saskatchewan; to the south, with the US state of Montana, and, to the southwest and west, with British Columbia. Alberta is an inland region in its entirety. It was incorporated into the Canadian Dominion (independent Commonwealth member states), on September 1, 1905, as the eighth province. Thanks to its extensive grasslands, its economy has long been based on agriculture. Since the 1950s, however, mineral extraction has become the main sector of its economy. Alberta is currently Canada's largest oil and natural gas producer. The province was named after Princess Louise Carolina Alberta, the wife of a Canadian Governor General and daughter of Queen Victoria.
Alberta has a continental climate, with cold winters and warm summers. In the northern and central regions, the average annual temperature is 1.7 ° C; south of Calgary, it is 4.4 ° C, except in the Rocky Mountains, where the temperature is about -1.1 ° C. In the Southwest, temperatures, modified by frequent Chinooks (warm winds descending from the Rockies), are the mildest of the interior provinces of the nation.

Many of Alberta's best attractions are a legacy of the power of nature, from the ancient glaciers that crown the Rocky Mountains, to the canyons, waterfalls, and lakes formed by its ancestors. For those of us who prefer more urban experiences, do not think that in the two main cities of the province there is a shortage of attractions, not at all!
