Canada's largest museum sprawls across two interconnected buildings with over 6 million objects spanning natural history, world cultures, and contemporary art. You'll wander through Egyptian mummies, Indigenous artifacts, dinosaur skeletons, and rotating contemporary exhibitions that feel genuinely curated rather than overwhelming. The striking modern facade contrasts beautifully with the heritage building, creating a visual experience that's as memorable as the collections inside.
