Take a day trip out to the
Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village. It's just down the road from Elk Island National Park, so we recommend combining a visit to these two Edmonton attractions.
The open-air living history museum has dozens of restored houses, churches, barns and stores that show how Ukrainian immigrants once lived. Costumed interpreters demonstrate daily life from the 1890s through 1930s. They also speak in character to immerse you in the experience.
