6 Cultural Activities in Ottawa

Check out the showcase of 19th century-style entertainment at Upper Canada Village (about 90 minutes from Ottawa). With artisans, peddlers and vendors, a musical circus equestrian show, illusions and magic, and games galore, there should be something interesting for the whole family. Make sure you don't forget to buy a bag of their stone-milled flour while you're there—it's amazing. Don't forget about them during the colder months, either. Their award-winning fall event Pumpkinferno is a must-see, and the whole village sparkles and glows during the holiday season.
