South Edmonton Halal Travel Guide

Edmonton's south side began with Edmonton/South Central, but the neighborhood explained right now began crucially with the suburban revolution of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. For Edmonton suburbia started in 1947.

The south neighborhood developed an array of mature 1950s style neighbourhoods like Ottewell and Holyrood. They rebelled against the traditional grid, but these neighbourhoods still have (some) mature charm.

Much growth of the area occurred in the 1970s and 1980s with lots of new neighbourhoods being created south of the then new Whitemud Drive. In the 1980s, Southgate Mall, which today is a very high-end mall, was built.

By the 1990s and the economy of the city slowed, but the area known as Terwillegar began to take form. With the completion of the Anthony Henday Drive on the south side, many even newer suburban communities have been beginning to pop up.

The area is home to South Campus, an extension of the University of Alberta, two times the size (in land mass) of the main campus.An LRT goes to Southgate and Century Park.

Mill Woods

Mill Woods had its first developments in the 1970s as a major residential neighbourhood. It was designed by planners to have its arterials in the shape of a wildrose. It is now just seen as suburban blight. In the 1990s and the area began to become prone to gangs and has since gotten a bad rep from the city. Unless you live there, it's wise not to call it "Mill Hoods" Today it has become "Little India" with several shopping areas catering exclusively to that demographic. Overall and the area does have fair transit connections and new neighbourhoods popping up outside the designated area.

The area constituting Mill Woods consists of: South of Whitemud Drive, North of Anthony Henday Drive, East of 91 Street NW and West of 34 Street NW.

Travel to South Edmonton

Edmonton South is usually one of the first places a traveller hits upon coming to Edmonton. The Edmonton International Airport is 14 kilometers south of the southern edges of the city. You'd enter via Gateway Boulevard (and leave if returning - going back to the south, be it the Airport, Leduc, Red Deer, Calgary and the US, etc. using Calgary Trail) into a land of big box superstores.

From South central, to go south to the South part of this city, take 109th St, Calgary Trail, or 99th St. From Edmonton/Central just get to south central and take the same routes

From the west, you can access the south via Whitemud Drive or Anthony Henday, or by going through other neighborhoods.

From the north, you can take Wayne Gretzky Drive directly to the Southeastern parts of the city, or enter via other neighborhoods.

Canada's largest living historic park, and one of Edmonton's premier tourist attractions. Located in the middle of Edmonton, this reconstructed fort lies five kilometers upstream from its original location, representing it as it stood in 1846. The park represents four distinct time periods, exhibiting phases in Edmonton's development from an isolated fur trade post in the vast Northwest to a booming metropolitan centre after the First World War.

The park features over 75 structures, many of which are the originals. Costumed interpreters operate the site and live the way of the past. Visitors enjoy exploring each building and each room, and talking to the role-playing interpreters.

The price of admission includes free steam engine train and streetcar rides, and period rides such as wagon, stagecoach, pony and buggy are also available with a small charge.

Riverside is very popular and booking a tee time requires fast fingers (or an auto-dial function on your phone) to book through the City's automated telephone booking system (780-442-5311 - call at 6PM sharp two or three days in advance to reserve a tee time).

Mostly nothing particularly interesting to tourists, but some of you may like hitting up Wal-Mart or IKEA even on holidays. It is very massive and has basically a lot of suburban outlets "under one roof" (if you get it). It has the largest Walmart in Canada.
  • Whitemud & Calgary Trail | Whitemud Drive and Calgary Trail - Some higher end retailers, as suburbs go along with a bunch of restaurant chains.
