Regina, Saskatchewan’s capital, is a city with deep roots and wide-open skies. Originally established as a key stop on the Canadian Pacific Railway, Regina quickly grew into a political and cultural hub. Today, visitors can explore its past at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, which features life-sized dinosaur exhibits and an extensive First Nations gallery. The stately Saskatchewan Legislative Building, surrounded by Wascana Centre’s 2,300-acre urban park, offers free guided tours that include marble staircases, copper dome views, and insight into provincial politics.
Moose Jaw is also home to Canada's Snowbirds, the country's elite air demonstration team. At the nearby Western Development Museum, aviation fans can get up close to vintage aircraft and explore prairie transportation history.
Regina's arts scene is anchored by the MacKenzie Art Gallery and the Globe Theatre. The MacKenzie is known for its Indigenous and Canadian contemporary collections, while the Globe offers live theatre performances in an intimate setting inside the historic Prince Edward Building. Music events like the Regina Folk Festival and Cathedral Village Arts Festival draw thousands every year, featuring everything from indie bands to handmade art markets and local food vendors lining the streets.
