This is the first museum dedicated to the history and culture of the Chinese community in Canada. While the permanent exhibits focus on the history of Chinese Canadians, the temporary exhibits present the work of local and international artists. The building blends classical and modern architectural styles and mimics the Ming Dynasty's Su Zhou Garden. Open all year round, the museum offers guided tours, language classes, tai chi workshops and historical discussion groups. The museum is adjacent to the Dr. Sun Yat Sen Classical Chinese Gardens. Admission: CAD3 adults, CAD2.50 seniors/students
