The Royal BC Museum houses treasures and artifacts that tell the story of British Columbia's natural and human history. From the province's First Nations people to its modern-day multicultural society, the museum offers an immersive experience in BC's past. Additionally, the Craigdarroch Castle, a Victorian-era mansion, is a National Historic Site built-in 1890 as a private residence for a wealthy Scottish immigrant.
