Regina, the vibrant capital of Saskatchewan, is a city with a warm spirit and plenty to discover! đ Home to over 200,000 residents, itâs a place where wide-open spaces meet a close-knit community vibe.

Their energy was contagious, adding a vibrant buzz to the already charming scene. Across from the Legislative Building, in the bustling ĺšżĺş (plaza), stands a striking statue that captures a piece of history: Queen Elizabeth II on horseback, a regal tribute to heritage and tradition. đ The majestic horse in the statue, named âBurmese,â has a special connection to Saskatchewanâthis beloved steed was born in Fort Walsh, a small community in the province! đ Unveiled in 2005 to mark Saskatchewanâs centennial, the statue was created to welcome Queen Elizabeth during her visit, making it a meaningful landmark that blends local pride with royal history. ⨠Why Regina Leaves a Lasting Impression From its welcoming streets to its historic landmarks, Regina has a way of feeling like home, even to visitors. Whether youâre here to study, work, or explore, the cityâs mix of natural beauty, community warmth, and rich history creates memories that stick. As we drove away, we carried with us not just photos of the Legislative Building and the Queenâs statue, but also the feeling of a city that embraces new beginnings and honors its past. Regina isnât just a capitalâitâs a place where stories are made, and where every corner holds a little piece of Saskatchewanâs heart. â¤ď¸ Weâll definitely be back! #Regina #Saskatchewan #QueenStatue #RoadTripCanada #StudyVisa #WorkVisa #UniversityOfRegina #CityOfRegina #SaskatchewanPride #TravelMemories
