The Royal British Columbia Museum is a human and natural history museum. Since it was founded in 1886, the collection has grown to over seven million items. There are three large permanent exhibits: The First Peoples, Becoming British Columbia and Natural History. The latter displays artifacts and fossils dating back 500 million years. Among the favorites is the full-size woolly mammoth. The Royal BC Museum also keeps visitors coming back to see frequent temporary exhibitions and new presentations at the IMAX Victoria.
