TOP 5 THINGS TO DO IN TORONTO
Wednesday, September 30, 2015
I've lived outside of Toronto for most of my life and I still feel like I tourist whenever I go down there. It's far enough that you have to make a day out of it, but there's so many things to do down there I still haven't done everything!
Kensington Market
Kensington Market is an incredibly well known area because of it's multicultural history. It's packed full of cafes, restaurants, bars and stores, and home to some of the most creative businesses.
St. Lawrence Market
I've only ever been to St. Lawrence Market once, and it was the first time I saw a full blown animals carcasses...it was creepy. But anyway, it's a cool market where you can buy fresh everything. There's even a stand in there all about juice.
CN Tower/Edge Walk
You can get an unbelievable view from the CN Tower, and an even better one if you choose the Edgewalk. Until a few years ago this was the world's tallest freestanding structure and it comes with glass floors (so you can squirm at how far up you are) and the 360 Restaurant.
Casa Loma
This gothic revival style house-turned-museum is a must see for history buffs, and architecture lovers. Completed in 1914, this castle has 98 rooms, stables, estate gardens and antique cars. This house definitely gives off a Great Gatsby feel with it's grandeur and elegance.
Distillery District
The Distillery District is a historic area of downtown Toronto, and is great for shopping boasting more than 80 shops, cafes and boutiques. It's also the largest collection of Victorian era industrial architecture in North America. This area is beautiful at night and around Christmas time, and has numerous art instillations.
