Lesser-known historic Edmonton museums
Although I’ve visited Fort Edmonton many times, I’ve only recently discovered the Masonic Hall Museum on 1905 Street. It’s easy to miss, as it’s located on the second floor of a building, of which the first floor offers refreshments. The Masonic Hall is a replica of the original built in 1904. It houses many interesting freemasonry artifacts from Edmonton’s past. Check out the rest of Fort Edmonton while you’re there, an awesome example of a ‘living history museum.’

Coffee and Pokémon Go: Lapras and lattes in Edmonton
To cap off the list, the final suggestion is Fort Edmonton Park. Though you have to pay admission for entry, it’s a worthwhile Pokémon hotspot, in addition to a fun field trip learning about Edmonton’s history. The River Valley park system is packed with Pokémon-related fun. It just so happens that the park is nestled right in the middle of it all.

Afternoon teas in Edmonton
Pair your high tea experience with a history lesson by visiting Fort Edmonton Park. Inside the park's Hotel Selkirk, you'll find Johnson's Cafe, where you can enjoy afternoon tea for two or more people. The high tea includes open-faced finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones, almond streusel tea cakes, mini opera cakes, chocolate dipped fruits and more. It's available for adults, children and seniors, making it a good spot for a family gathering on Mother's Day.
