Known as one of the most multicultural and welcoming cities in the world, Toronto offers diverse, eclectic neighborhoods; thriving art, music, and theater scenes; great shopping; and family friendly activities. The city is a foodie’s paradise with every cuisine imaginable and has countless major museums and boutique galleries.
Toronto’s most iconic attraction is the CN Tower, the tallest free-standing structure in the western hemisphere and it now includes EdgeWalk, a thrilling hands-free walk on an outside ledge of the tower. If you prefer views on solid ground, take the scenic ferry ride to the Toronto Island, which provides a great photo opportunity of the skyline.
Great picnic fare can be discovered at The St. Lawrence Market, ranked by National Geographic as the world’s best food market. Try the famous peameal bacon sandwich at Carousel Bakery. Nearby, you can spend the afternoon at the Hockey Hall of Fame and get your picture taken with the Stanley Cup.
The Distillery District is another one of Toronto’s most vibrant neighborhoods. It was Toronto’s first distillery, which produced almost half of Ontario’s total spirit production in 1871, and is now home to high-end boutiques, art galleries and restaurants.
Toronto is also chock-full of activities that are educational and fun. The Ontario Science Centre offers hundreds of interactive exhibits; the Toronto Zoo showcases over 5,000 animals including gorillas and polar bears; the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) is Canada’s largest museum of world cultures and natural history; and explore North America’s only castle, Casa Loma.
