Top 10 Things To Do, Activities and Attractions in Toronto

"Just down the road from the Gooderham is St. Lawrence Market, which has been a fixture in Toronto for over two centuries. Every week, more than 120 vendors set up shop, and their colourful displays bursting with the likes of organic produce, fresh-baked goods, homemade jam and Canadian cheeses are photo heaven."

"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."

"Now I know I mentioned that you cannot go to Toronto and not get a picture with the CN Tower. But Nathan Phillips Square is another perfect location to get that typical Toronto picture. Whether you visit in the summer or winter there is plenty of opportunity for you – whether you are with the iconic Toronto sign or skating around with City Hall in the background."

"Pull on some skates and go ice skating at Nathan Phillips Square. If you’re not an ice skater, hang around the square to lap up the winter wonderland atmosphere while you watch the skaters glide across the ice."

"Queen Street West is notably more different than the downtown Toronto shopping districts mentioned previously. It’s a vibrant neighbourhood with a mix of great shops, beautiful art and some of the city’s best restaurants and bars. To paint a picture of this area in case you haven’t had the pleasure of visiting quite yet, in 2014, Vogue named Queen Street West the second-hippest district in the world."

"Queen Street West is certainly where you can get some shopping done!. Located – you guessed it – along Queen Street West west of Yonge Street and extending well past Bathurst Street, Queen Street is also home to many amazing restaurants, hip bars and pubs, and coffee shops. One of our favourite ramen places in on Queen Street West and Lisa misses it dearly from when we used to go for ramen lunch!"

"From the tower make your way up to Queen Street where you can then catch a streetcar or start shopping your way down the street. Further down Queen Street West you’ll find Kensington Market, a bohemiam and hipster neighbourhood filled with vintage shops and many ethinic cuisines. It’s a great spot to stop for lunch or you can wait as you make your way to Chinatown."

"A beautiful yet desolate beach that has long been a recreation point for Torontonians, in fact its where Babe Ruth hit his first professional home-run. This is also Toronto’s only clothing-optional beach. Where: Located on the shores of Lake Ontario on Toronto Islands, Toronto"

"Probably best known for its “clothing optional” section, don’t let that scare you away from this beach. Hanlan’s Point Beach is perfect for your next getaway. Located on Toronto Island, you’ll have to take a short ferry ride to get there."

"A post shared by George Longley (@george_art_longley) on Apr 26, 2018 at 1:49pm PDT. Just a tiny trek outside the city and you can check out Centennial Park Conservatory. It can be accessed between 10 a.m."

"Or if you’re with kids the Ripley’s Aquarium which is just below the tower is one of the best places to visit in Toronto. From the tower make your way up to Queen Street where you can then catch a streetcar or start shopping your way down the street. Further down Queen Street West you’ll find Kensington Market, a bohemiam and hipster neighbourhood filled with vintage shops and many ethinic cuisines. It’s a great spot to stop for lunch or you can wait as you make your way to Chinatown."

"Than you must head to the Ripley’s Aquarium to view over 16,000 creatures in front of your eyes!. Marvel at everything from seahorses, sharks, turtles, and more!"

"Khau Gully, meaning “Street of foods,” is a modern Indian cuisine food joint based in the city of Toronto, quite famous for its tandoori delicacies and Shortbus. The ambiance is posh, with a touch of traditional-modern Indian style, which vibes totally with the extensive menu. They offer vegetarian options, but choices are limited."

"Just outside of Calii Love (the healthy eats coffee, smoothies and lunch bar specializing in poke bowls) on King Street you’ll find some adorable pink murals that are perfect for the gram. These are probably my favourite pink walls in Toronto, aren’t they cute?. Located at: 367 King Street W"

"If you’re also a lover of all things colour, Calii Love has a wall filled with cute and aesthetic murals perfect for your Instagram feed. Afterwards, you can grab a colourful latte or poké bowl inside the restaurant!. LOCATION: 367 King St. West, Toronto, ON"

"Planta Cochina is one of the newest Planta restaurants and it has a Mexican-inspired menu gone completely vegan. Tacos, empanadas, nachos, fries supreme, burritos, quesadillas, guacamole…I can’t wait to visit!"
