(Go to the Lethbridge Sport Hotels Section)

Lethbridge has the Nikka Yuko Centennial Gardens in its southeastern corner at 7th Avenue and Mayor Macgrath Drive in Henderson Lake Park. Four tranquil Japanese horticultural landscapes make up the gardens, along with a pavilion of cypress wood handcrafted in Japan perpetually laid out for a tea ceremony.

Fort Whoop-Up at Indian Battle Park (Scenic Drive at 3rd Ave), a reconstruction of the wild whiskey­trading post set up in 1869 by Americans from Fort Benton, Montana (the first of several in the region). It became the largest and most lucrative of the many similar forts which sprang up all over the Canadian prairies, and led directly to the arrival of the North West Mounted Police in 1874.

Sir Alexander Galt Museum at the western end of 5th Avenue South off Scenic Drive, one of Canada's better small-town museums. It's named after a Canadian high commissioner who in 1882 financed a mine that led to the foundation of Lethbridge. Renovated in 1985, the museum offers an overview of the city's history.

Lethbridge Alberta has great opportunities for sport tournaments of all kinds. Sport tourism is a part of Lethbridge Alberta and it features hockey, basketball, soccer, baseball, lacrosse and many others. Lethbridge is home to a wide range of amateur sport clubs.
