Canada's first museum dedicated to Chinese Canadian history, set in Chinatown's oldest building, the restored 1889 Wing Sang, with permanent and rotating exhibits on immigration, exclusion, and community. It's a moving, well-curated stop that grounds a Chinatown walk in real history. The caveat: it's compact and story-driven rather than a big artifact-heavy museum, so give it an hour, not an afternoon.
