On clear days, you can see the mountain peaks from the city, giving Calgary an impressive backdrop. The city is also known for its dry and sunny climate. In fact, Calgary enjoys more sunshine hours per year than Miami. In winter, the famous chinook winds can cause temperatures to rise significantly within hours.<\/p>\n<p>Although Calgary is a relatively young city, it has a rich history. What started as a fort grew into a major center for cattle trade and later for the Canadian oil industry.
