1400 Stanley Park Drive, Vancouver, BC
Description:
We stumbled across this cluster of totem poles in Vancouver's Stanley Park and stood mesmerized. The craftsmanship is amazing. There are also some displays about the local Coast Salish First Nations. One of the totems was carved by Haida artist Bill Reid, well-known in these parts for his artistry and role in keeping the craft of carving totems alive. For anyone interested in Vancouver's native heritage, this is a great way to get up close to some towering totems.
