A must-visit in Victoria! A magical museum where you can meet dinosaurs

Hehe~ Today, I want to recommend a treasure museum that is perfect for literary youth! Here, you can not only see huge dinosaur specimens, but also learn about the indigenous culture of Canada. It's like an adventure through time and space! ⛱️Must-visit attractions: 🐋Giant Blue Whale Hall: A breathtaking life-size display! 🪶Indigenous Culture Exhibition Area: A comprehensive collection of totem poles and masks 🦕Natural History Museum: Lots of dinosaur fossils! 🎭Life History Museum: The restored old streets of Victoria are perfect for taking photos 🌄Travel tips: 📍Address: 675 Belleville Street, Victoria, BC V8W 9W2 ⏰Opening hours: - Daily 10:00–17:00 (open on holidays) - Extended to 22:00 on Thursdays/Fridays in summer 🎫Tickets: - Adults: $18.95 - Students/Seniors: $12.95 - Children (6–18 years old): $11.95 - Free for children under 5 💡Tour suggestions: - Allow 4–5 hours for your visit - Audio guides are available for rent (in Chinese) - It's crowded on weekends, so it's recommended to visit on weekdays 🏨Accommodation tips: Recommended hotels in the Inner Harbor area: - Fairmont Empress (right across from the museum!) - Hotel Grand Pacific (5-minute walk) - Victoria Marriott Inner Harbour (10-minute walk) 💗Other tips: - Free Wi-Fi is available in the museum - There is a storage area on the first floor where you can store your luggage - Flash photography is not allowed in the museum - The handicrafts in the souvenir shop are very unique - There is a cafe in the museum, but it's recommended to find food in the Inner Harbor - It's recommended to book tickets online to save money - Special exhibitions require additional tickets - You can use street parking meters It's highly recommended to visit with an audio guide, or you'll miss a lot of interesting stories! Especially in the Indigenous Exhibition Area, each totem pole has its own unique meaning, and you can only get the essence after listening to the explanation~ By the way! If you happen to visit on a Thursday/Friday night, the atmosphere will be even more special! And there are fewer people, so you don't have to worry about someone photobombing your photos! 😆
