Tourist bonanza: Museum of Anthropology

Another weekend...another frantic day of tourist activity using our 'free' tourist passes.

We started at the Museum of Anthropology, which is based at UBC, the local university.

It is a huge museum and includes thousands of artifacts from all over the world...totem poles...masks...artwork...cedar baskets...jewelry...

Undoubtedly our favourite was the local native art. Here are some pictures:





We spent a couple of hours here, but really we could have stayed longer. There is a huge amount on display but inside & outside the museum. Definitely worth a visit.
