This is a great chance to see how people lived and worked in the 1860s. You'll find craftsmen giving displays into the traditional trades of Canada.

This is a beautiful and poignant memorial to a Sufi from the region who renounced his posessions and went on the Haj to Mecca. It is especially beautiful at sunset seen from the land.
