Top 5 Budget-friendly Things to do in Iqaluit, Canada
Canada's newest and northernmost arctic capital incorporates the traditional practices of its native Inuit communities into the fast-growing metropolitan infrastructure. Nowhere is this more apparent than in Nunavut’s Legislative Assembly building in downtown Iqaluit, a 3-story edifice that integrates Inuit motifs in its modern design, or the igloo-shaped Anglican cathedral. Stone monuments like inukshuks and inunnguaqs guide travelers to the spectacular tundra surrounding the city.

Fantastic visit today at the centre because of Aaron. He knows and understands the history and culture of Iqaluit and the Inuit so well. Thank you Aaron on behalf of the Centennial College students/faculty for teaching us so much in such a short period of time.
