Tourist Information for Winnipeg & Area
FoundLocally provides all of the tourist information for Winnipeg & area attractions,
hotels & accommodations, city maps, as well as getaway travel from Winnipeg.
Winnipeg reflects a number of strong ethic cultures of the immigrants that came here from foreign shores and made this land their own. While the French, the Ukranians, and the Jews are among the largest, they are only the tp of the iceberg. The east bank of the Red River has the communities of St Boniface and St Vital, which have large numbers of francophones, and the shops, attractions, museums and other institutions reflect the strong French culture and history of the area.
