This is a long coming photo thread I wanted to make for the longest time but was too lazy. But I decided to do so now.
Lets start with my trip into town, this was the rockies
Rest of the pictures have no order
Heres a few from downtown
I decided to go to the top of the Calgary tower, heres some photos from atop the tower
The beltline I believe
Looking towards the skydome
Towers of downtown, density was incredible
Looking down from the Calgary Tower
Heart of downtown
I was staying in Forrest lawn and took some photos from that area
The skyline is impressive from a distance
So I decided to take the C Train
I thus proceeded to walk around downtown to get a feel of the place
The C Train in the background, enjoyable ride in and out of town if I do say so myself.
More street views of the CBD
The city's skyscrapers are very tall and dense, I was extremely impressed.
Looking up
Tall one under construction on the left, don't know it's name but it's girthy.
This windmill looks pretty interesting at it's location
The Bow River was a beautiful green colour, made me think of kalamalka lake in the Okanagan but with a deeper green colour.
I decided to walk across the pedestrian bridge, I cannot remember it's name but it's pretty nonetheless
Nexen Headquarters
Living Large
Husky Headquarters
Your skyscrapers have fantastic designs
Native sculpture downtown
Density FTW
Near the train station, getting ready to pack it up and head back to the place I'm staying

Finally on my way back to Vancouver heading west
I love your city, very pretty and dense. Sorry I didn't get many shots outside the core.
I'll be back in January and hope to explore more.
