House of Pacific Relations

Description:

• This cluster of small cottages built in 1915 is dedicated to the preservation of peace among nations. Each cottage represents a particular nation's cultural heritage. Each Sunday afternoon volunteers dress in native clothing, chat with you in their ancestral language and serve up favorite dishes from the homeland. On summer afternoons, folk dancers present traditional songs and dances. Different houses offer events each weekend on a rotating basis, and sometimes a full festival will draw large crowds.
