Reviews of Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre (Zoo)

simon ho

Very good food.

Tober

Very insightful and educational exhibit. It is donation based making public access to it easy. My only complaint was how the topic of residential schools was glossed over with this panel (shown). The motive of this exhibit is to display indigenous life, culture, and history in this region. This cannot be accomplished without acknowledging the destructive impact of residential schools on these people. Many visitors to Canada do not know our dark history and I hope that one day it will become easily accessible public information.

Jin Choi

(Translated) It's free but it's also great for explaining yellowknife to kids. (Original) 무료인데도 내용도 알차고 아이들에게 옐로우나이프를 설명하기에 매우 좋은곳입니다

(Translated) Yellowknife's history, natural environment and animals are described in detail. I just entered the idea of taking a look around, and the pictures, pictures, sculptures, videos, and various exhibits were interesting and fun. (The rabbit is hiding where the polar bear is located.) (Original) 옐로나이프의 역사와 자연 환경과 동물들에 대해 자세하게 설명되어 있다. 그냥 한 번 슥 둘러볼 생각으로 들어갔는데 그림, 사진, 조형물, 동영상 들 다양한 전시물들이 있고 생각보다 재미있어서 시간이 꽤 오래 소요되었다. (북극곰 모형 있는 곳에 토끼가 숨어있으니 찾아보세요ㅋㅋ)

Raymonde Masson

We went to the museum to jump start our visit to Yellowknife. We were so please with all the history packed in this 2 stories building,that we made a point to come back on a different day to finish our tour. To complete the visit,we sat at the cafe to take it all in! Great menu, friendly service. Many thanks to the tour guide. Glad we made it part of our visit to Yellowknife.

Well laid out and comprehensive. I found myself wishing I had more time to explore.

Brian Won

It may not be the biggest or most mind-blowing museum, but for a city of under 20,000 hours from anywhere, this place shocked me with just how good it is. Exhibits were all high quality and comprehensive as it told the sort of humanity in the Northwest, natives and Europeans alike. Would highly recommend to anyone coming to Yellowknife!

Max Leard

One of the former staff did an informal tour for us, as our uncle built most of the cases in the museum.

(Translated) The collection of things in the interior is complete, and visitors have a deeper understanding of the development history of Huangdao Town.

Al Risden

This was an excellent stop while on my photo tour of Yellowknife. I had bookmarked it as a possible place to visit but had not decided until driving around the city. The parking was plentiful, and free. The building was well located close enough to the main city area to be easily accessible. There are several "departments" within the facility that contain all sorts of historical and informative facts about Yellowknife and Canada in general. I'll be back if I'm in the area again.

Great ! Worth the time...

Jeff Lawson

Nice museum for visitors to learn a little bit about the local culture, though its small size means you probably won't be spending more than an hour or two at most here.

Andrea Gray

If you're looking for a 'quick' activity I would highly recommend coming to this museum. It was very informative of the history and traditions of NWT and supplied a lot of artifacts! It took me about an hour to walk around at my own pace - If there was one complaint it would be that it's too small and should expand! The staff were very friendly and helpful when I asked questions and the exhibits were lovely. Would come back again!

Manny Kudluk

This is a great centre, with wonderful exhibits. The food is also very good, but be prepared to wait, it is not very fast. Ordering in advance helps.

A must if you're only in Yellowknife for a short while. It is a well arranged museum for its size and does a great job at exposing tourists to the long, rich heritage of the north!

Heckuva museum. Exhibits are well-organized and effectively designed. My favourite part was the small exhibit on the impact of WWI on the North.

Gary Yao

Gordon Pritchard

Covers a bit of geological, anthropological and cultural aspects of a large swath of Canada's North (not just Yellowknife area). It's a large bite, necessarily restricted, and reasonably done. Engaging sections for all ages and a variety of interests. Very family-friendly. Includes free parking, washrooms, coat alcove, and a very nice cafe. There is no gift shop / book shop. Admission is free, but they have a low-key solicitation for donations. Plan for perhaps 2 hours (up to 4 hours if you really want to savour every tidbit).

Adam Lakusta

This museum on Frame Lake is very interesting, and I always enjoy my time there. The exhibits are well maintained, and they are adding things all time to the museum. I would like if there were people available in the exhibits to talk to you more in depth the different subjects.

Loved Landan Peters' art !

Soham Srimani

Good place to visit!

Ashton Reimer

This is a nice museum that does a good job of explaining the basics of the history of the Northwest Territories while centering the First Nations perspective. However, the history is definitely portrayed in a diplomatic manner, giving a nostalgic air to the past rather than framing things in a critical manner illuminating current social and political issues of northern Canada. You definitely need to talk to locals if you want a full understanding of northern issues. There is a nice interactive display about the Aurora and several beautiful beadwork art displays. There is a cafe too, but it was closed when we visited.

GWoo

Excellent museum that showcases the extensive history of the NWT. A must if you happen to visit Yellowknife.

Talking with him was a highlight of our visit here. He recommended the restaurant and we stayed there for lunch. The food was very delicious!

Beautiful museum nestled in the province of the northwest territory of Canada. Place nestled in the capital of the province, Yellowknife that reflects the ecosystem and the natural environment in which these animals develop and live. As well as the inhabitants of this inhospitable place of the earth. This museum is an unforgettable experience.

Great place to go if you are visiting Yellowknife! The staff are super helpful, and the exhibits are well done. They also have a tourist information booth where you can get a free Yellowknife pin.

Rainbow

Stories about the Yellowknife in here. Friendly staffs who always willing to tell more than the exhibitions.

P Smith

Fun spot to spend the afternoon and learn a lot about northern history and culture. Admission is free, but if you can drop a donation in the bin before you leave. They have few different permanent exhibits on different aspects/regions of the north and there seemed to be at least two different exhibit spaces that get changed out regularly. If you want to learn more about the history and culture of northern Canada definitely check it out.

Tim Tschirhart

An excellent place to examine and wander, for a day, or two.

I'll be honest - I did not expect a museum of the caliber in Yellowknife. Admission is free of charge. There are both permanent and temporary exhibits, all relating to the life in and heritage of the North. Be sure to take a couple hours out of your day to visit!

Michael Bulger

Very well done.

Good

SINA LEE

(Translated) You can see the history of Yellowknife and the lives of the Indians. Unlike the United States, new immigrants (white people) were also impressed by the process of pioneering land together without killing indigenous people. I was personally happy that the "WE", the subject of the Yellowknife pavilion's photos and explanations, was Indian. Anyway, Yellowknife is where indigenous people lived. There are also many other animals inhabited by Yellowknife. It is a very high quality exhibition hall, so I recommend you to stop by. (Original) 옐로나이프의 역사나 인디언들의 삶을 볼 수 있습니다. 특히 미국과 다르게 새로운 이민자(백인)들이 토착민들을 살상하지 않고 함께 땅을 개척하는 과정도 인상적이었습니다. 옐로나이프 관의 사진이나 전시물의 설명에서 주어인 “WE”가 인디언인 것도 저는 개인적으로 참 좋았습니다. 여튼 옐로나이프는 토착민들이 살던 곳이니까요. 그밖에 옐로나이프에 서식하던 많은 동물들을 사실적으로 볼 수 있습니다. 매우 퀄리티 높은 전시관이니 꼭 들러볼 것을 추천합니다

Great free museum. Well worth the visit.

Benjamin Fisher

Really neat exhibits, and great value, I mean it’s free??? I’ve never seen so much indigenous culture represented all in one place and in a way that isn’t just historical but shows ways of life still practiced in northern Canada! A great learning experience for me.

Ariel Waltz

(Translated) As a leading city of Northwest Territories, it is a good museum showing its history and environment. Through the model and the real thing, it becomes easy to understand. The stuffed animals and the ecology of the animals in this area are well explained, so if you want to see them carefully, you will see them for more than an hour. There is also a children's playroom. (Original) 노스웨스트준주의 주도시로써, 이 곳의 역사와 환경을 보여주는 좋은 박물관. 모형과 실물을 통해, 알기쉽게 되어있습니다. 이 지역에 사는 동물 박제와 생태 등에 관한 설명이 잘 돼있어서, 꼼꼼히 보려면 한시간 이상 보게됩니다. 아이들 놀이방도 있어요~ 방명록 작성하면, 뱃지도 줍니다 ^^

Good displays, interesting history/geography. Free entrance.

For it's size and location this museum is very impressive. Exhibits are pretty comprehensive on life in the North West Territories, and include both indigenous groups and settlers from outside. The dioramas in the galleries are very detailed and informative. It's not too big so only will take you an hour or two, but well worth your time in Yellowknife!

高翊軒

It's free, and it's worth to visit! May take 1.5 hour stay, good choice for waiting the night.

Marzo Soo

Yellowknife ecosystem and history of settlement, etc. ㅋ There is no admission fee, there is a lot of space to sit and relax, and there is a cafe ... good. (Original) 설명이 영어라서 시간이 오래 걸렸지만 볼만했어요. 옐로나이프 생태계 및 정착의 역사 등등 ㅋ 입장료도 없는데다 앉아서 쉴 수 있는 공간도 많고 카페도 있고... 좋았습니당

(Translated) If you come to Yellowknife, I recommend visiting here. The admission fee is free, but the contents are so rich that you might think that you may pay. Immediately after entering, I think that the efforts of CANADA C3 exhibited at the exhibition are wonderful. Thank you for visiting Canada at the 150th anniversary of Canada's founding. (Original) イエローナイフに来たらここに訪れることをオススメします。入館料は無料なのですが、有料でもいいのではないかと思ってしまうほど内容が充実しています。入ってすぐのところで、展示されていたCANADA C3の取り組みは素晴らしいと思います。記念すべきカナダ建国150周年の節目にカナダを訪れることができたことに感謝しています。

(Original) 무엇보다 무료였습니다. !!! 따뜻하고 편의시설이 잘 되어 있어요. 옐로우나이프를 가신다면 꼭 한 번 방문해 보세요. 제가 갔을 땐 호수가 꽁꽁 얼어 있어있었지만 여름에 간다면 호숫가 산책도 좋을 것 같아요.

Cody McLean

Fantastic place! Payment by donation. Scavenger hunt for kids with prize at end. Good videos, and well explained information. Good information on the Dene. Staff were friendly and helpful. Picnic table out front is a good place for a snack. Bathrooms clean. Lots of good other photos. I've added a picture from the kids' area. Lots of kids spent hours in this small area throwing fish around from traditional trapper house and using some of the puppet animals to put on plays for others.

Charles Tan

Small but it is well managed.

John Colford

Lunch at the museum, great food, great service

bob kizlyk

It's not the museum it used to be. Instead of displaying general history of the NWT like it used to it has greatly narrowed its focus to native people and their superstitions. We were very disappointed that much of the previous history is gone from this museum. Not a peep about the Franklin expedition!! There's more on that at the Cambridge Bay Airport! Nothing about the early explorers, early or current aviation or mining and the tragedies and challenges.... just native stuff and their superstition. We would never go back here again. So disappointed!!

(Translated) Very interesting place, the service staff is very very good ~ There is also a coffee shop in it. It is said that the burger is delicious, but it closes at 3 o'clock. There are specimens of animals in the museum, and you can also touch the fur of the samples. The polar bear's hair is super hard ~ friends who come, don't miss it! ❤️ (Original) 非常有意思的地方，服务人员非常非常的好～里面还有家咖啡店据说汉堡很好吃，可惜3点就关门了。博物馆里有个种动物的标本，还可以摸摸样本的皮毛。北极熊的毛超级硬呢～来的朋友们不要错过了！❤️

ginni brown

Awesome. Very professionally presented.

Catherine Graydon

Thoroughly enjoy the amount of historical information about Yellowknife, mining, the Yellowknives Dene, current wildlife and prehistoric wildlife, RCMP in the north. I especially enjoy the Discovery Gallery (I may have that name wrong) where kids can play in a McPherson tent, log cabin, or tipi, and dress up as animals and play with stuffed animals.
