Municipality: Nicolet Traveler reviews:
Located in Nicolet, halfway between Montréal and Québec, the Musée des religions du monde invites you to come discover the fascinating universe of the world’s five major religions. A surprising trip into the heart of religious practices and the beliefs of Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Christianity. Visit varied, original and entertaining temporary and permanent exhibits, and enjoy a colourful and unexpected experience. The brand-new permanent exhibition “Êtes-vous près?” will expose different religious rituals in the world. How is marriage celebrated by the Hindu? How do young Buddhists follow their religion in Quebec? What same observance is found in every religion at baptism? A fascinating, daring and original exhibition! Never before seen in Quebec! Are you ready? The exhibition that raises questions. In addition to visiting our exhibitions, discover the coloured sand mandala! Fun for young and old alike!
