Royal Ontario Museum
Royal Ontario Museum
Royal Ontario Museum seems as if it was struck by an extraterrestrial mineral formation on the outside. While some residents objected to the old structure, others have come to appreciate its angular beauty. The ROM is Canada's greatest museum of foreign cultures and natural history, with more than six million artifacts amassed since its founding in 1912.
The museum exhibits a wide range of treasures, including dinosaur bones, ancient Roman sculptures, Chinese temple art, and an exhibit on the Canadian origin for visitors. Because there is so much to see, you should schedule your time carefully or you will end up wandering the museum for much longer than you anticipated.
The ROM used to have five primary galleries: one for archaeology, geology, mineralogy, paleontology, and zoology. However, more interpretative displays were introduced in the 1960s, with the original dinosaur exhibition being one of the earliest. Fossils of dinosaurs were now displayed in dynamic stances against paintings and models depicting contemporary landscapes and flora as backdrops. And if you're traveling with children, you won't have to stress about keeping them occupied: There is an interactive gallery at the ROM where kids can feel snakeskin, see shark jaws up close, and go inside a fox's den. Also, the CIBC Discovery Gallery is another option, where kids can dress up and dig for dinosaur bones.
The museum's diversity is a treasure, and it's well worth the trip. To put it another way, the Royal Ontario Museum offers it all, you can start by checking out the museum's current exhibits, which comprise the permanent collection of Chinese, Egyptian, clothes and textiles, art, and First Nations artifacts. When you get to the second level, the dinosaur exhibit should be a must-see for you, if for nothing else. It'll be a hit with the children and adults alike. Despite being in the city's center, the museum is roughly a mile north of the city's most popular attractions. Due to its proximity to the University of Toronto campus, getting there on foot will take longer than by automobile or public transportation.
This museum's moniker pretty much sums it all up. The museum's most distinctive feature is the building's highly unique architectural design. Entranced by a stream of natural light, the impact is stunning. Furthermore, it's refreshing to have a structure that houses intriguing artifacts double as an intriguing object in and of itself.
