The Alberta Legislature Grounds is situated within a natural & serene environment. The impressive natural canopy provided by the trees aids environmental conservation while also making both morning & evening walks though the grounds very relaxing & pleasurable. The building is very historical and magnificent. Gives you that European feeling 😊

The legislature grounds and building are one of the jewels of the city of Edmonton. During the summer, the pools out front of the legislature building are open as a place to seek relief from the heat; during the winter, they feature ice scultptures and seasonal decorations. all year round, the legislature grounds are a great place to visit, as they are consistently well-tended and beautiful. The legislature building itself is also a treat to tour if you can get the chance.

I found the person who answered my call helpful, I did not know who to speak with or what to say but I feel thankful that there is still a way to contact MP's. I am not great at conveying information so the patience is appreciated. I admire that there is still such a thing. Thank you.
