Places to take my Japanese friend (St. Albert)

In the future, we may host Japanese students in St. Albert, or there may be Japanese students interested in learning about St. Albert over the Internet. For this purpose, we would like St. Albert students to suggest heritage sites relevant to St. Albert's heritage that Japanese students may be interested in.

Please comment on this post with both a site to visit and a brief description of the location. Please keep your comments in very simple English so a Japanese student can understand. Comments should follow the guidelines outlined in Commenting on FACTSnet Blogs. Use "Sum2010A" as the group name. Include a URL linking to information on the site.

The Perron District is an excellent intersection of cultural and trendy. Every Saturday in the summer until September, the St. Albert Farmers Market runs from 10AM to 3PM in this spot. Besides that, there are lots of small cafes (I recommend the gelato), some finer dining (Ric's Grill - an open air restaurant), and indie shops selling unique amenities. I'll also second the opinion that the Library (just a little more south of Perron and St. Anne) is a nice place to visit, it's one of the more elegant libraries I've been to.

Town oF LEGAL Murals, the murals are great but it would be better to have the stories behind them. It would be more interesting.
