I was not expecting such a big market! It just kept going. There was a great mix of wares for sale and quite a bit of space between the sellers. I purchased a photo from a photographer I had followed for years. What a treat! The temperature was too hot to fully enjoy the morning so we hope to return!

Decided to take a drive to the Viking Statue today. Incredible views and history at this location. Some great info about families that have lived here and the history of it. Easy to walk around here and benches to sit and relax while looking out into the lake.

Spend the day at this pleasant park which features a zoo, fabulous English gardens, scenic walking paths, a minature train and a theater,among other amenities.

Been here alone, as a couple and with family because it’s above average for a park in the city! I like the big walkways and overall design, plus it’s accessible from many entrances by car or on foot. Restaurant 8-4 serves breakfast too and booze lol. Sculpture garden has bronze Winnie the Pooh and other cool statutes too. Pavilion is beautiful day and night. I love the flower gardens, the art, the outdoor theatre and the three dollar steam train. Also love the nature play equipment for children and it’s extra nice because there isn’t any doggy do do as they aren’t allowed there making it cleaner and safer for young children. If you walk up to Portage Ave., you can buy an awesome burger or awesome ice cream, but expect a line up without washrooms there. Park washrooms clean. My wish is for the zoo to sell tickets like a parking lot would. I wish I could just pop in for 20 minutes and see the kangaroos because their hopping makes me feel so very happy! Id like to pay for the time I spend because often I don’t have a whole day and I spend time waiting for others that could be spent at the zoo. Parks are free, but they cost money to run and I’d be willing to pay ten bucks to see the kangaroos for a few minutes just to make myself feel awesome! Anyway just go and feel great and smile and say hi to everyone! You can skate there in winter and they always have events happening so check their website.
5. Clearwater Lake Provincial Park

Appropriately named for the lake's visible deep water, this park offers hiking, camping, canoeing, swimming and excellent fishing.

We drove HWY 10, from The Pas, to 287. We passed The Pas Airport, Sunset Beach, And Campers Cove. There’s a sign directed to The Caves. Upon arrival, it was nice to see a fair sized parking lot. We applied our Muskol Insect Repellent then began our hike & exploration. The hiking trail loop is estimated to take 45 minutes to complete Exploring, enjoying the lakesides scenes, and walking inside the Caves definitely takes more time depending on individual interests. Once you find the stairs down to the Clearwater Lake discovering the starting point to The Caves is easily accessible. Just look for a path down into the first of several caves. LOVE NATURE THERAPY Appreciated the insect repellent; lots of bugs and Dragonflies. Runners/hiking shoes recommended for climbing rocks while exploring The Caves Disappointed to see so much litter along this trail; must bring litter collection items next time to help clean up the trash. Most hikers know to pack in & pack out everything-LEAVE ONLY FOOTPRINTS. This trail is filled with majestic scenes, let’s all do our part to preserve the beauty nature gifts us.

The Mennonite Heritage Village features two galleries and a reconstructed late 19th century Mennonite village. Experience the life of early Mennonite settlers and hear their story as they seek to live as peacemakers in this new world. Eat traditional food at our restaurant in the village. The galleries are open year round. The village and the restaurant are open seasonally. Check our website for details.

Living in Manitoba I have heard so much about this museum and never had a chance to visit until now. Steinbach's phrase is "It's worth the trip" and this museum definitely delivers. Beyond the large modern entrance facility the village is accurately set up along a main Street. The commercial buildings are all well maintained, and well interpreted. There are volunteers selling local artisan items in the general store, I volunteer in the blacksmith shop and a very well-stocked restaurant right in the middle of the museum. I suggest coming in the morning to be the museum, eating lunch on site and then continuing in the afternoon. The homes / farm buildings are very well set up, including live animals which is fantastic! There are many volunteers keeping this organization moving forward. The iconic windmill is very interesting, but there is also a section of the Berlin Wall and a memorial imported from Russia. If you've never been to this museum, it's definitely worth the trip!

The manitoba legislative building was designed by a Freemason. It has hidden secrets that are revealed by the historian Dr. Frank Albo, on one of the most interesting and entertaining tours of architecture you will ever attend. Highly recommended! We booked through Heartland Travels.

Discover a green oasis in the heart of Winnipeg. This nine-acre (3.6 hectare) park, which encompasses open green spaces and tree-lined walkways, is a national treasure owned and operated by Parks Canada. Enlightening interpretive displays, inspiring sculptures, stone pictographs and ceremonial bronze gambling sticks embody the Site’s rich continuum of historical events that span over 6,000 years.

So much history! So much to see! It is a little sad that the European influence dominates and overshadows the Indigenous Americans', which is much older, richer and more sacred. Many interesting plaques and artefacts from both eras to be seen. I prefer the outdoor displays - the Wall Through Time and Oodena Celebration Circle - and of course quiet walks along the river-walk. It is worth spending an entire day, if that is enough time to see it all. Definitely worth visiting again and again.

Part of "the Forks" development, this buzzing fresh and specialty foods emporium has the feel of an outdoor market, but is actually indoors. Open year-round, it offers an array of ethnic delicacies and crafts, plus four full service restaurants.

Came here twice in just a few days. This place can get busy but it’s so beautiful to be here. Places to sit and relax ( couches and tables to place games) lots of food places to choose from, great shopping , something for everyone.

The Manitoba Museum is the province's largest centre for heritage and science learning, unique in its combined human and natural history themes, immersive world class dioramas, science and astronomy education, and in the scope and quality of its programs.

I recently participated in the Museum's Now and Then program. This is a program designed for people with early to middle dementia and their caregivers. It is two hours long and includes an introduction, a visit to a gallery, coffee and cookies and then an activity associated with the gallery that was visited. This time we visited the Urban Gallery which is augmented to reflect the Winnipeg General Strike that took place 100 years ago. There was even a short film playing in the movie theatre and like it would have been 100 years ago it was in black and white with no sound other than some music playing. The information presented before, during and after the tour was fascinating. This is a great program for everyone.
