Museum of Anthropology (MOA)
The Museum of Anthropology at UBC is one of Canada's premier anthropology museums, holding an internationally significant collection of Northwest Coast First Nations art including monumental totem poles and ceremonial objects. Perched on the cliffs of Point Grey overlooking the Strait of Georgia, it is housed in a landmark modernist building and draws visitors from around the world. Touring cyclists can reach it via a scenic coastal route along NW Marine Drive, though the museum's own website cautions that the approach involves a significant hill.
