Get an introduction to the lands and people of Canada's Pacific coast at the Royal British Columbia Museum, one of the country's great cultural treasures. Explore the fascinating collection of exhibits within to learn about the natural and human history of the Northwest and beyond.

Founded in 1886, the museum has collected artifacts, documents, and specimens of British Columbia's natural and human history, safeguarding them for the future and sharing them with the world. Explore its exhibits to find a place of learning and play for visitors of all ages.

Among the museum's collections, you can take a look past a wall of ice into the life of a woolly mammoth, climb aboard a replica of the ship that Captain George Vancouver took on his expedition up the Pacific coast, see how the fur trade forever changed the lives of the region's first peoples, and revisit the days of the Gold Rush.
