From dinosaurs to paintings, it has everything for the days when you are not hitting the slopes. Here are but a few.<\/p>\n<h3>Banff Park Museum National Historic Site of Canada <\/h3>\n<p>This is one of Canada&#8217;s oldest and greatest natural history museums. The old architecture in itself is a vision back to what Banff once was. One of the highlights is the early natural history interpretation of Banff&#8217;s many mammals, birds and insects. The curator at the museum for over 30 years, Norman Sanson has personally collected thousands and thousands of specimens in an effort to make this museum the best of its kind in Canada and a fine job he has done too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong><br \/>\n91 Banff Ave.<br \/>\nPO Box 900<br \/>\nBanff, AB\u00a0\u00a0  T1L 1A9<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phone:<\/strong> 403-762-1558<br \/>\n<strong>Fax:<\/strong> 403-762-1565<br \/>\n<strong>Email:<\/strong> <a href=\"mailto:ted@canadianrockiestravel.ca?subject=Inquiry%20from%20BanffLakeLouise.com\">ted@canadianrockiestravel.ca<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hours:<\/strong> Banff Park Museum National Historic Site of Canada<br \/>\nSummer<br \/>\n15 May &#8211; 30 Sept<br \/>\ndaily 1000 &#8211; 1800<\/p>\n<h3>Bankhead, Ghost-Town<\/h3>\n<p>Bankhead was once considered to be the most modern town in Alberta, easily outdoing Banff. At its peak, this mine employed 300 men and produced half a million tons of coal a year &#8211; a remarkable sum in the early 1900&#8217;s. However, by 1922, the profits were down, the miners were on strike and the mines were abruptly shut down.<\/p>\n<p>Today, it really feels like a ghost town. An easy 1.1 km loop trail leads through the ruins of the coal mining operation with plaques explaining what once stood there. A few ruins of the residential area of Bankhead are located in the Upper Bankhead picnic area. A highlight is following the abandoned Bankhead railway line to the beautiful Cascade ponds day use area 2.5 km away. A very different kind of museum.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong><br \/>\nLocated on Lake Minnewanka Rd, 7.4 km from Banff<br \/>\nPO Box 900<br \/>\nBanff, AB\u00a0\u00a0  T1L 1K2<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phone:<\/strong> 403-762-1550<br \/>\n<strong>Fax:<\/strong> 1-403-762-1551<\/p>\n<h3>Buffalo Nations  Luxton Museum<\/h3>\n<p>This is a museum dedicated to the resilience of the Fist Nations People.
