A country of historic wonders

Canada may not have Roman ruins or a huge store of centuries-old buildings, but not everything in the country is shiny and new. These buildings, natural wonders, Indigenous artefacts and other attractions have some years on them, telling important stories about Canada’s complex and fascinating history. If you're planning on visiting any for yourself, be sure to check local travel restrictions and COVID-19 protocols before you go.
