West Edmonton Mall which includes a waterpark and interior views

West Edmonton

West Edmonton revolves around its star attraction – West Edmonton Mall, a mega-complex that's basically a small city under one roof. Thrill-seekers scream down roller coasters at Galaxyland while families splash in the tropical paradise of World Waterpark. Beyond the 800+ shops, you'll find an NHL-sized ice rink, miniature golf, and even an indoor replica of Columbus's Santa Maria ship. The surrounding area offers a relaxed suburban vibe with family-friendly neighborhoods and community parks. Hotels cluster near the mall, providing convenient bases for shoppers and water park enthusiasts. Public transit is limited, so having a car or using ride-sharing services is your best bet for exploring beyond the mall's massive footprint.
