At the heart of the Canadian Prairies lies Regina, Saskatchewan’s beloved capital. Rich with heritage, it is trademarked by its historic attractions, each with a unique story of its own like the RCMP Heritage Centre, the Legislative Building, the Government House and other relics from the past that are responsible for putting the Queen City on tourist and Travelodge maps worldwide.
