Winnipeg boasts one of its most stunning structures: a building with a reflective, glassy exterior that becomes a mesmerizing spectacle at sundown, bathed in the warm glow of an orange prairie sky. Stepping inside, you're treated to guided tours that offer a chance to hold a hefty gold bar worth over $750,000. It's surprisingly heavy! You'll also get to admire the Olympic gold medals crafted for the 2010 Vancouver Games and witness the fascinating process of coin production for 75 different countries. It's a place where history and craftsmanship meet, making a visit to the Mint truly worth every penny.
The Mint isn't just about coins and bars, though. It's a hub of fascinating stories and historical tidbits. Did you know that the Royal Canadian Mint produced the world's first million-dollar coin? And for those with a keen eye for detail, there's an impressive array of commemorative coins, each with its own unique design and backstory.
