Canadian Museum for Human Rights. Everywhere you gaze, you're in awe of amazement. The architecture of this building is intricately put together. It's absolutely stunning. It was my first time here, and I was surprised how kid friendly it is, with a lot of activities for kids during spring break. For your first time, I thought three hours would be enough, but there is so much to see that you can likely stay here for five hours.
Beautiful architecture and space to wander around, I was there for an evening event during pride. Nice garden space and stage arad, only feedback would be the bar locations blocked in the dance area and the flow was off.
I was here for a holiday, admission was free. Very futuristic and the structures inside are amazing. Stories of different cultures and peoples, and the higher you go the brighter it gets. It was cool, I recommend a visit.
Best experience with respect to the amount of content and history. Very well documented and maintain place. It will take 4 - 5 hours if you are a history lover and want to understand how much sacrifice people made in the last 200 years because of war.
This building is fabulous. The architecture is inspiring and dramatic. The walkways through the building and up to the top are lite beautifully. The exhibits include native stories about Canada and some of the trials we have gone through over our history. Me must remember the past but focus on a brighter future. The blanket to remember residential schools brought tears to my eyes. My favourite great uncle Andy Petiquan and his siblings were taken from their homes and put in MacIntosh residential school. They had needles put through their tongues for speaking the language. One day they escaped and made a perilous three day journey home. My uncle Andy and his brother braved the elements. My uncle survived but his brother died due to exposure from the trip. At least he died at home and not in an unmarked grave. I want to forgive and get over this atrocity but it hurts so bad. The kind of people you meet at this museum are different. They are friendlier, kinder and seem genuinely more understanding. It’s just got a totally different vibe as soon as you enter. The coffee shop upstairs would be a great place to take a date. The tickets are inexpensive and affordable at under $20. Take the walk and stairs to the top of the building for a romantic view. If you don’t like stairs or are handicapped there’s an elevator. What a lovely view of Winnipeg. The museum attracts a trendy crowd. This is one of the best places to visit in Winnipeg. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and courteous. There is even a level to sit quietly for people who need time to recover from the emotional exhibits. The level is called the garden of contemplation; you can hear water trickling as it runs through the stone ponds. It’s got a colourful souvenir shop. There is a coat check for those who are dressed heavily for the winter. There’s a place to get coffee and snacks and also to eat outside. I highly recommend this Winnipeg attraction for a date, family outing or just something to enjoy for yourself. There’s lots of parking across the street in the paid parking lot. There’s lots of room for buses and the parking is fair. Warning, some of the exhibits are very stirring emotionally. We have a disgraceful past as a country. It’s something we must grow through and learning more about it is part of that process. I couldn’t help but cry watching the residential school videos and viewing the blanket and the making of it… I left feeling hopeful and optimistic for a better future
