Stretching from Nova
Scotia in the east to Vancouver
Island in the west, Canada
boasts more than 2,500
museums that range from large metropolitan galleries to small community
museums and chronicle everything from prehistoric dinosaur remains to
the latest developments in science and technology. No clay shard, no
centuries-old painting, no children’s toy is left unturned or
unexamined for the 59 million visitors who pass through the country’s
museums each year.
The cowboy is a North American icon. From the prairies of Alberta to the ranches of Texas, the boot-kickin’, Stetson-wearin’ man has long been a symbol of the Wild West. Today, such figures can still be spotted across Canada, especially at summer rodeos. Amidst a flurry of chaps and spurs, country music and clowns, rodeo grounds come alive with bucking bulls and barrel-racing horses in a posse of action-packed performances.
Surprisingly, there is a plethora of unique, unusual and eye-catching landmarks that can be found in every province of Canada. In fact, these often entertaining sights are more likely found in smaller towns, where tourists are lured in to take a picture or buy a trinket of these one-of-a-kind discoveries.
