Toronto: Queens Quay & Old Town

We have travelled to the far East of Canada, the middle and now… to the West of Canada we go!

Toronto is the largest city of Canada and it’s bustling with activities. The pace of living is slightly faster than the rest of Canada, and the shopping is good. The weather ain’t as crazy as Winnipeg nor Boston, making it a great place to visit.

One of the most famous icons of Toronto is the CN tower. It’s distinct shape marks the skyline of Toronto.

The best time to visit the CN towers is pre-night fall.

You get to see the gorgeous sunset…

And you may be in luck to watch a game 533.33 metre down.

And of course, when you’re in the land of the Canadians, you definitely have to make time for the Hockey Hall of Fame.

But if you ask me, my favourite spot in Toronto has got to be Queen Quay. It reminded me so much about Sydney Harbour. Plus, I got to eat the famed ice-cream - the shop is located somewhere along the Quay and the chocolate ice-cream is fantastic.

That aside, the streets of Toronto are worth exploring. You never know what you might run into!

More ice-cream?

There is little doubt that you should spend a few moments at the Old Town.

Get some local produce at the Lawrence market, smell some flowers and catch a glimpse of the famous Flatiron building.

Canadians sure have a sense of humour.

Tomorrow, I’ll bring you to visit a site that is whimsical in its own rights.
