Medicine Hat is a city located in southeastern Alberta, Canada. It is situated on the South Saskatchewan River and is home to approximately 65,000 residents. The city is named after a First Nations legend involving a headdress that was said to have healing powers. The area that is now Medicine Hat has a long history of human habitation, with evidence of prehistoric cultures and First Nations settlements dating back thousands of years.

The city is also a popular destination for tourists, with attractions such as the Esplanade Arts & Heritage Centre, the Medicine Hat Exhibition and Stampede, and the Medicine Hat Mall.
