Manitoba, where the prairie meets the city

At the center of Canada, Manitoba unfolds across open prairies under vast skies, with rivers guiding the land’s rhythm. In Winnipeg, the Red and Assiniboine Rivers converge at The Forks, a historic gathering place shaped by centuries of movement and community. From Indigenous meeting grounds to the age of rail, the city grew as a hub for the Prairies. Today, Fairmont Winnipeg occupies a central downtown location, bridging the financial district and the river junction, where the province’s past and present meet.
