Saskatoon - Western Development Museum
|
|
Highly recommended is a visit to this, the largest of Saskatchewan's four Western Development Museums which authentically recreates and documents the history of the Canadian west. "Boomtown 1910", the reconstructed main street of a typical prairie town (the longest such street anywhere in North America), is lined with old-style shops - including a Chinese laundry and a barber's shop - as well as a church, fire-station, railway station, and other period buildings. There is also a collection of vintage cars (priceless today) and ancient tractors.
