Canadian Museum of History | the most visited in Canada

During the March Break, which is that week of school holidays for the children and already Alice was at home and in great need of activities, we visited the Canadian Museum of History, just across the Ottawa River in Gatineau. It is considered canada's most visited museum, with its 25,000 square meters of exhibitions and an exclusive online collection.

The museum is one of the great sights of the region and should certainly be included in a visit to the capital, being also easy to reach, both on foot and by car / public transport.

The only thing I didn't realize was the amount of people who had the same idea that day. I imagine the whole week has been intense for the museum, especially the Children's Museum, which is inside the main building, but even the museum's large underground parking lot was crowded. Yikes.

The Children's Museum is an area dedicated to children, with various interactive activities and temporary exhibitions, as was the case of Thomas & Friends, which those who are father, mother or the like, should know.

Now you imagine the full museum, a big girl who is super explorer and a small, tireless girl who has no idea of danger. I'll just say it was tiring to keep everyone close and free of dramas (had dramas, could not escape), but in the end it all worked out.

Here are some photos of the tour and see the information about the museum at the end of the post:

When it was time to leave, we still took a quick walk through other parts of the museum outside the children's area. Alice and Diana were able to entertain themselves there too.
