The Museum of Civilization in the foreground, and in the background - the Canadian Parliament and other historic buildings in central Ottawa. Spent a lot of time commuting back and forth around this area when I lived in Ottawa.




Also in town, the new Canadian War Museum. Really an awesome space, one of the best military history museums anywhere. The big "shard" sticking out of the building is part of a memorial arrangement that lines up to project a ray of sunlight on the original headstone of Canada's Unknown Soldier from WWI which is stored there, every year exactly at 11:11am every November 11th.
