Tourist Spot

Beautiful castle -fun for a tourist activity or date.

A great place to spend a rainy afternoon, leisurely strolling through the galleries...the exhibits are great and the gift shop is full of prints and neat finds!

They have amazing art and cultural exhibits along side old favourites like the batcave and the dinosaurs. I myself am obsessed with the mummies in the Eqypt section - you can see the hair! The toes! Oh my. The new interactive area for children is really great if you have kids or young relatives, and the giftshop is a good place to pick up unique gifts. Only $10 to get in on Friday evenings after 4:30, the perfect place for a nerd date!

The secret rooms and the maid's staircase were highpoints of my childhood. It's still nice to wander around the gardens and admire the gorgeous architecture of the castle. Touristy for sure, but still a favourite of mine.

I love castles and I love that this one is in the middle of the city where you wouldn't expect it. The gardens are really beautiful.

It has beautiful garden and outdoor cafe. Great place to spend an afternoon in the spring.
