We started our trip from Victoria BC on the Malahat. Duncan was packed on the Saturday we went because of the Farmer´s market. We got completely sidetracked from our totem pole tour for the market actually. We had lunch and a massage and then we continued with our totem pole walking tour in Duncan.
The totem poles are each made by incredibly talented totem pole artists and depict animals and people of the West Coast such as eagles, ravens, beavers, whales, bears, and salmon. Each totem pole tells a story. The totem poles with copper in it are symbolic of wealth. There are totem poles for all different reasons and to symbolize all different things. There are totem poles to honour family, for protection, peaceful boundaries, to represent strength and wealth. So often there is an eagle on the top of the totem pole.

Duncan - City of Totems, Vancouver Island, BC, Canada
The 'Totem Tour' in Duncan, BC, Canada on Aug. 19, 2012. Located in the southeastern corner of Vancouver Island, Duncan is dubbed as the City of Totems. The town is home to the world's widest in diameter totem pole - Cedar Man Holding Talking Stick. It was carved by Richard Hunt in 1988.
Duncan, the unofficial capital of Cowichan Valley, has over 80 First Nations carvings located throughout the town. It is also home to the Quw'utsun' Cultural Centre. This Aboriginal cultural centre on the banks of the Cowichan River honours the ancient roots of the Coast Salish in the valley, which takes its name from a Salish word meaning the warm lands. Duncan is also known for great shopping and dining, the Saturday Farmer's Market, Aboriginal experiences, BC Forestry Discovery Centre, and its historic old-town quarter.

Why I Love: Duncan
It may be one of the smallest towns in Canada, but Duncan has some of the biggest hearts. Meet a man whose life changed through music, see masks that reveal a fascinating history, and visit a farm that is growing hope.
