City of Yellowknife

City of YellowknifeYellowknife is a natural highlight of a northern travel itinerary. Our capital city is bursting with colourful personalities, Northern art and recreation opportunities.

You'll meet people from all regions and all Aboriginal groups: Dene, Metis and Inuvialuit. There's a cosmopolitan flavour to match a 21st century outlook.

Visit the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre and the unique, snow house shaped Northwest Territories Legislative Assembly. Together with the Northern Frontier Visitors Centre, they are focal points for the capital region. Self-guided audio tours of the Assembly are offered in the 11 official languages of the Northwest Territories, plus Japanese. Tours include insight into the territorial consensus system of government.

Shop for art and for Canadian Arctic Diamonds, mined just a few hundred kilometres away. Dine out on catch of the day from pristine Great Slave Lake, or choose sushi, muskox and Arctic char, buffalo burgers or Baffin shrimp.

This friendly city is the best place in the world to see the magnificent Aurora Borealis. There’s a tempting variety of special winter and summer packages offered by our outfitters. Select from a full range of accommodation, from luxury hotels to apartment suites, to bed and breakfast or campgrounds, together with a range of restaurants and nightlife.
