"A whole bunch of Americans coming from a devastatingly disappointing night of MMA fights walk into a bar...and it's the Boston Pizza across from the Courtyard…”more"

"The Marine Museum is currently the only museum in Canada that exclusively represents the maritime history of the Great Lakes. It is in the unique situation of being a community museum, with nationally significant collections telling a regional and national story. The museum and this site are not only important to the Kingston community’s sense of identity, but also to the importance of the Great Lakes corridor as a key piece in the economic development of Canada.The museum offers a range of outreach programs covering topics from maritime history and travel to shipbuilding and the environment."

"Despite its smaller space since moving from the dry dock to the Portsmouth Olympic Harbour, this museum still offers a detailed account of Kingston's history as an important shipbuilding center from 1910 to 1960...."

"The Museum of Health Care, located in the Ann Baillie Building on Queen’s University Campus, is the only museum in Canada dedicated to the history of health and health care. The museum has one of the largest collections of medical and health care artefacts in Canada. It is home to a wide-range of artefacts and archival documents and photographs from surgical tools to laboratory instruments documenting how people have preserved health and managed disease, pain, and suffering from the late 18th century to the present day."

"This lavish turn-of-the-century island castle in the middle of the St Lawrence is only around 25km from Gananoque, but technically in the USA, so you'll need your passport to visit. It was built by George C Boldt, original proprietor of New York's famous Waldorf Astoria Hotel. Many Thousand Island cruise tours stop here, or you can drive 23km from Gananoque to Alexandria Bay, NY, USA, where 10-minute shuttles cross the 1km of water to the castle."

"Boldt Castle, spectacular 20th century building located on an small island in the middle of the river. Attention Non-Americans, don’t forget your passports when visiting the castle, because it’s on the american side of the river."

"Founded by the National Hockey League and the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association on September 10, 1943 – Kingston’s International Hockey Hall of Fame and Museum is the “Original Hockey Hall of Fame” and the oldest sports hall of fame in Canada. Captain James T. Sutherland of Kingston spearheaded the bid to bring the Hockey Hall of Fame to Kingston and was inducted into the hall in 1947 – one of the first forty members inducted into the hall during the Kingston-era. The Original Hall of Fame is proudly located in Kingston, Ontario."

"No need to drive to Toronto to get a little piece of hockey’s history. Fittingly located on the second floor of the Invista Centre, The Original Hockey Hall of Fame is filled with a ton of interesting facts and artifacts. The best part is the focus on Kingston-born legends like Doug Gilmour and Jayna Hefford."
