Fort Edmonton Park

One of Edmonton's premier attractions, the Park represents four distinct time periods, exploring Edmonton's development from a fur trade post in the vast Northwest, to a booming metropolitan centre after the First World War. The park features over 75 structures many of which are the originals. Costumed interpreters operate the site and live the way of the past. Exploring each building, each room, and talking to the 'inhabitants' makes for an extremely enjoyable recreational visit. This attraction can be viewed in a few hours or may take many return visits to appreciate the sense of the past.

After we bought our entrance tickets, we waited for the steam train to take us to Fort Edmonton.
Looking across from our shelter, we saw the funfair.

After 5 minutes, the steam train pulled in.
