Medicine Hat

Medicine Hat has served as a railway and natural-gas centre in southeastern Alberta since the late 19th century. The South Saskatchewan River runs through the city, with coulees and open prairie defining its broad, dry setting. Known as the Gas City, Medicine Hat long relied on local gas reserves for power and heating. Its Historic Clay District recalls an era of brick and pottery production, while the Saamis Teepee, built for the 1988 Winter Olympics, remains a conspicuous civic landmark.
