It includes the Exchange District, Central Park, The Forks, and Winnipeg's Chinatown. The downtown area is roughly three square kilometres. Portage Avenue is the city's busiest thoroughfare.

Winnipeg Santa Claus Parade 2014

It takes place every year in late November, and every time I shoot this spectacular event from almost the same spot.  It's an entertaining show, especially when it is not too cold outside.  I think, that a lot of people in Winnipeg wait this annual event and many of them are happy to participate it or watch it from the streets.  Below you can see my video of the last parade, which took place in November of 2014.  Usually parade is one and half hour long.  While it welcomes the Santa in our city, it also opens a Christmas season at Winnipeg.
