Royal Ontario Museum (ROM)
Located in Toronto, the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) The ROM is one of Canada’s largest and most important museums. Founded in 1914, its mission is to preserve and display collections of world natural history, art, and culture. Over the years, it has undergone several expansions, including the striking Michael Lee-Chin Crystal, a glass and steel structure added in 2007 that gave the building a futuristic design.
The ROM houses more than 13 million artifacts, spread across several galleries. Highlights include giant dinosaur fossils, Egyptian mummies, and the largest collection of Chinese artifacts outside of China. In addition, there are exhibits on Canada’s First Nations and a vast collection of minerals and gemstones.
For visitors, the ROM offers temporary exhibitions, interactive activities for children, and cultural events. A must-see for those who want to explore history, science, and art all in one!
