Visit the Royal BC Museum to be enlightened about local culture and long gone history. If the past is prologue to the present you will be able to see and explore countless exhibits and artifacts of lost worlds that cast a light on how we live today. Stroll through the Modern History Gallery to experience an authenic Herbalist Shop in old time Chinatown. The entire family, especially the young ones will be impressed with the startling exhibit in the Natural History Gallery of the life-sized replica of the dinosaur era Fossilized Woolly Mammoth complete with massive tusks and teeth. When planning your visit consider a trip to the National Geographic IMAX Theatre that's within the building. Royal BC Museum is a world class institution that is as entertaining as it is educational and a genuine treat for everyone.
