With the recent recall on time machines, time-period junkies have resorted to eating 100-year-old wedding cake and throwing antique-shop raves. Save your mind and digestive system with today's Groupon: for $19, you get one adult annual pass, which includes rides on the historic carousel, to the Burnaby Village Museum on Deer Lake Avenue in Burnaby (a $39.37 value).
The 10-acre open-air Burnaby Village Museum transports visitors back in time to explore a 1920s-inspired village filled with heritage and replica buildings typical of a tram-stop community along the B.C. Electric Railway. Explore the surroundings at a leisurely pace and enjoy the smiles of period-costumed townsfolk who offer demonstrations in the village’s homes, businesses, and shops. Fan-favourite stops include the blacksmith, the schoolhouse, the spaceship, and the farmhouse gardens. The annual pass also includes rides on the historic 1912 CW Parker Carousel, with riding mood music provided by a 1925 Wurlitzer Military Band Organ and a mezzo-soprano monkey. For an old-fashioned holiday outing, Burnaby Village hosts Heritage Christmas from November 27 to January 2 to let visitors experience the merry-making of yore. Picnic tables, a gift shop, and an ice cream parlour are also on the premises.
Reviews
Six Yelpers give the Burnaby Village Museum a near-perfect 4.5-star average, and three TripAdvisors give it an average of four owl eyes:
- This place is fun. It's a throwback to the older days before internet, LCD TV's and hybrid cars. It's a past that you rarely get to see in the lower mainland. I think it's good for those young and old, and new to the area to see and learn about our history. How rich and diverse it really is. In the winter time it's pretty festive, especially if there is snow. They have carolers, singing and hot chocolate and it's pretty festive in the winter. – Larry L., Yelp
- I can't write a review without mentioning the carousel; it is absolutely beautiful, and each horse is a work of art. Best of all, we all enjoyed our ride. Overall this is a recommended outing, suitable for families, history buffs and anyone interested in an enjoyable trip back in time. – EskarinaSmith, TripAdvisor
