whyte museum of the canadian rockies

还不错，可以了解印地安人到访的历史，还有看到最古老的汽车，还有直升机，英国人也有到访过，蛮不错的博物馆…

This place was clean, nice, inexpensive, and informative. It was not large. It had a nice gift shop, was right down town, and was very close to parking. Overall, a good hour of entertainment and education.

This Museum is well worth going to. It was a great History of the Park and local area. Much was learned about the People and Times.Lots of great artifacts and Displays. Good for kids 7yrs and up...

Our family really enjoyed learning about the area and the rich history of the mountaineering and legends who had traveled through.

Went to see the story and photographic display of an old explorer and were amazed by it. Well set out in large room. Local guide was informative .Washrooms clean .

We ended up in Banff on a rainy day and thought we would drop in to the Whyte Museum for something to do. It's payment by donation, open until 5pm. The exhibitions aren't all permanent and I loved the two photography exhibits that were on. Very informative, full of local history, and plenty of beautiful photographs.

i agree with other reviewers, if you have an hour, or so spare, this is an interesting museum to visit. Whilst I was there it had two displays - a local artist and Banff and surrounds commitment to WW1, as well as information about how Banff was established. I took quite a while reading all the information that was provided. There is also a gift shop with a good selection of written material, not only about Banff, but Canada as well.

some good paintings by Peter and Catharine Whyte and others. Interesting and insightful exhibits on the history of the park and of the town

This is not a big museum but has some great history. Good old pictures. It is free - but you are sort of expected to pay a $5.00 per person donation. Worth it if you are curious and have an hour.

Sorry to hear that the Whyte Museum's variety of exhibitions did not pique your interest. Certainly the natural beauty of Banff National Park is tough competition, especially today with a fresh blanket of snow on the mountains.Happy travels.

We stopped in here for an hour or so on a rainy fall day while in Banff, and found the many varied exhibits of life and art in the Canadian Rockies very interesting. Well worth the meager suggested donation for admission!

There is always a section in the gallery which will educate you on the "Rockies", it's beginning, it's development and the experience of Peter & Catharine Whyte.Any visit to Banff should include a visit to the Whyte museum.

So glad that you found us! The Whyte Museum is one of a few special places that can be discovered by exploring Bear Street in Banff.

Small but entertaining- this museum is entry-by-donation and has a few interesting exhibits highlighting the history of the area. There are also rotating exhibits by local artists and a cute gift shop.

Part of the museum was closed,so it was a very short visit,but what we did see was really interesting.
