A Trip to Woodland Culture Center

I will never regret of this trip.  

This was a wonderful tour to native culture. It was a discovery trip of similarity of the world.

Last Friday, I joined the tour to Woodland Culture Center. It was organized by our school, Mohawk College. Because of cold weather, there were only less than 30 travelers. I'm very glad that I went.  There I knew about some cruel history of the residential school, the stories and spirit of native Indian (I think they are Native American). It's nice to know that most Canadians are immigrant. And Asian even has more similarity in culture with them.

This is a man with local costume! I never thought that a man could wear such flowery costume before.

My favorite male head dress.

Art work of a native American.

We had wonderful lunch after the trip in the small museum.
The rolling cake filled with cream and eggs are delicious. It's the first tasty meal I had outside in Canada.

After the meal, a guest speaker told us the history of the union of 6 nations. Their natural energy theory is really similar with Chinese Ying Yang theory. Moreover, we both use herbal medicine to cure disease. Being a Chinese, I think Chinese herbal therapy system and Ying Yang theory are more mature and developed. 

Oh! Did I mention we went there by a luxury bus? It's the first time I took a bus with limo-style furnishing.
