About Winnipeg
Winnipeg, capital of Manitoba, stands where the Red and Assiniboine rivers meet, a prairie city with a historic warehouse district and cold winters.
Winnipeg sits on the flat prairie of southern Manitoba, at The Forks, where the Red and Assiniboine rivers join. People have gathered at the meeting place for thousands of years, and today it holds a market, riverside paths, and the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, whose glass-and-stone tower is visible across the city.
Top-ranked sights in Winnipeg: Canadian Museum for Human Rights, The Forks Market.
