Most residents of the far-north territory of Yukon live here in Whitehorse, its capital city. And they'll seize any opportunity to get outside and take in the region's breathtaking wilderness beauty, whether they prefer hunting, angling or cheering on (or participating in) the annual Yukon Quest sled-dog race.

While en-route to Carcross, I stopped in at the shop after seeing the signs for it, and wow was I glad I did. Not only is it stocked full of Yukon specimens, many from the old mines around Whitehorse, but also has superb specimens from the Northwest Territories and around the world. The owner is extremely helpful and patient, and shared lots of interesting information about the history of the mines in the area, and helped me locate some specimens I really wanted for my collection. Prices are extremely affordable, and there's a wide range of rocks, minerals and souvenirs so you can get gifts for everyone you know, even those in your family with no interest in crystals/rocks (heresy, I know!).

Lumel Studios is a community Glass Blowing studio located in Whitehorse, Yukon that revolves around a positive and creative space. We offer free demos, a gallery space, as well as several exuberant workshops in structural glassworking, blowing, and sand casting.
It's minus 30C outside, but it is nice and warm in the Lumel Studio! My wife and I booked their "Hot Date" and had a fun time with glass-blower Mark making two stemless wine glasses. Everyone that works in the studio, especially Luanne the founder, as hugely enthusiastic about sharing their artistic skills with newby glass-blowers. What a fun hour or so with two handmade souvenirs to take home (once they cool down!)

A Moving Experience. True Yukon stories live here. Come & experience big, impressive modes of transportation – dramatic, authentic, and personal stories of Yukon ingenuity & self-sufficiency. Group tours welcome.
I went with my husband and two kids under two years old and it was amazing. First of all, we live in whitehorse and never had never been before because I always thought it would be drab, but I was SO wrong. It actually feels very lively and the history of the Yukon really seems to come alive in front of you. There are some great exhibits, an awesome train that kids will love, a hanger complete with a kid friendly control panel, a play room, projector, letters from the gold rush, and an outdoor area as well (and much more!) We played outside in the big sandbox, which has tons of trucks and toys. We rode a funny bike-rickshaw around, and just admired all the old equipment. It really is an amazing place! You can rent bikes here as well. They even have old Yukon license plates for sale - if you can find one with letters/numbers of any significance it would make a very cool souvenir. Memberships are a very reasonable price. The Transportation Museum is gem, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting whitehorse as well as any locals looking for a fun and interesting way to spend a morning or afternoon.
