Hello Guides,
I hope everyone is well!
This weekend was full of history, fun and family outings.
This weekend we visited the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum) (https://maps.app.goo.gl/aS3M46ncbgcgcno98 ) - which for me is one of the most beautiful museums in the city, as it has an older side that reminds us of buildings from the first decades, and a second, more modern side (which It is even under renovation).
Children up to 3 years old do not pay for the visit, but here in Toronto we have a family visitation program, which is provided by the libraries, and as there were tickets available, we took advantage of the free tour.
The museum has a great structure to receive visitors of all categories, children, elderly, adults, teenagers and people with disabilities. The location has accessibility ramps, automatic doors, elevators, adapted bathrooms with bars; alarms; and players for adults, as well as guidance for the hearing and visually impaired.
The museum can purchase tickets via the website, or directly via electronic totems and humanized cashiers. Furthermore, to make life easier for visitors, the site has maps and schedules in several languages.
The museum currently has 3 accessible floors, with the second floor dedicated to wild and marine animals, and a space entirely aimed at children (with games based on history and nature, as well as monitors)
The ROM has some exhibitions apart from the museum, which require other tickets to access, so it is important to pay attention to the places you want to visit.
They also have a very complete café, located on the ground floor, along with the largest dinosaur skeleton in the place, and a souvenir shop.
Certainly, for anyone coming to Toronto, it is a trip that should be on the visit list.
I’ll leave some photos so you can appreciate the place.
I hope you like the post! Hugs
