19 Best Things to Do in Toronto
"St. Lawrence Market is perhaps the most famous market in Toronto, and locals regularly shop its stalls for produce, meats, cheeses, and more. While the focus of your trip should be browsing the dozens of food stalls, it’s interesting to take a look at the architecture of the St. Lawrence Market, too. Though the current main building was erected in 1902, part of the Old City Hall, which dates to 1845, was incorporated into it."

"Toronto’s City Hall is the main draw here but the revitalization that’s been going on has locals coming back. Just above all the concrete, the City Hall podium roof has turned into a public garden offering solace from the politics below. The permanent theatre stage has live performances during many of the festivals held here and don’t forget to check out the Peace Garden which has relocated to the west side of the square."

"The fore court of the Toronto city hall, with an area of 12 acres is the Canada’s largest city square designed by the Finnish architect Viljo Revell open to the public in 1965, an icon of modernist architecture along with the city hall. Place for art installations, several festivals during the year, ice skating on the square reflecting pool during the winter and a vibrant space in Toronto and worth visiting."
