    Revelstoke Railway Museum

    Revelstoke Railway Museum, in an attractive building across the tracks from the town center, contains restored steam locomotives, including one of the largest steam engines ever used on Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) lines.

    Grizzly Plaza

    Grizzly Plaza is a pedestrian square and the centre of downtown, where free live music performances- some achingly sincere if not good - take place in the evening throughout July and August. Life-sized bronze grizzly bears flank the plaza. Throughout downtown, look for historical plaques on the many restored buildings.
