Iqaluit

Iqaluit is the capital of Nunavut, formerly known as Frobisher Bay. It is a growing city of 4,250. There is a modern airport and the city serves as a gateway to the Eastern Arctic. Among local sights of note are St. Judes Anglican Cathedral - shaped like an igloo and decorated with local crafts. The Baffin Regional Visitors Centre exhibits the life and culture of the South Baffin region. The Nunnatta Sunaquatangit Museum has a fine collection of Inuit sculptures, prints and artifacts. The Government of Nunavut Building is where the Nunavut Legislature meets and also houses an excellent display of northern art. Take a trip to nearby Katannilik Territorial Park Reserve.
