Jordan Contact Information: N/A
Tel. N/ALocation:
Province: Ontario; Tourist Region: Festival Country
Internet: http://www.itcwebdesigns.com/jordan_ca.htm Description: Jordan and its surroundings are a very lovely part of the Niagara peninsula. Nestled between vineyards and fruit gardens it is one of my favorite destinations when we have visitors and I want to show them our area. The Location has a relative long history and all the old houses are nicely renovated. Many of them have been converted into small galleries, stores and boutiques. I was especially attracted by one which sells sculptures and other art work created by the Inuit and Iroquois. Visit the museum to learn more about the history of this area.

Sainte-Marie among the Hurons Contact Information:N/A
Internet: http://www.itcwebdesigns.com/sainte_marie_1ca.htm
Description:Samuel de Champlain, the founder of New France as Canada was called at that time, considered Christianizing as essential for a colonization. Only few Europeans had settled at this time in what we call today Canada and I learned that this was the first settlement in today's Ontario. For that reason Champlain supported the French Jesuits when they started to built a mission station in 1639 on the banks of the Wye River. It was called "Sainte-Marie among the Hurons". Hurons was the name which the French used for the Wendat nation.
