Common questions

What is on this list of places to visit in Canada?

Museums, galleries, national and provincial parks, historic sites, gardens, beaches, waterfalls, zoos and the landmarks a town is known for - grouped by type and filterable by province and city.

Where does this information come from?

From open data. Wikidata says what each place is, where it is and what it is known for; where an article exists, the description is the opening of the Wikipedia one, quoted and credited. Every listing names its source and its licence at the foot of the page.

Do you list opening hours and admission prices?

Only where the source published them, which for most places is not at all - the open data that says what a place is rarely says when it opens. Every listing links to the official website, and that is the one to check before you drive: seasonal and holiday hours change faster than open data does.

Can I suggest a place that is missing?

Yes. Anything missing can be added by hand, and an added place keeps its details even as the automatic sources around it refresh.
