Canada Tour  Barkerville  3 xPiP
Nowadays the town is a tourist attraction.
In 1958, the government decided to completely restore the town. The few inhabitants moved away or were relocated to New Barkerville


Like in the old times
The houses were furnished with appropriate furniture and utensils from the past time, giving an impression of life at that time. The churches are open to visitors, in the schoolhouse you can watch a lesson of the time, the blacksmith's craft is shown.
Employees are dressed accordingly. In the historical costumes you can experience a little of the time. Horse carriages drive through the streets, one feels in another time.
Barkerville is worth a visit
the town shows impressively how people lived in the times of the gold rush. Here, time really seems to have stood still.
