EXPLORE TORONTO

Toronto is known for many things but above all it’s famous for being the largest city in Canada, and the most multicultural city in the world. Nearly half of the city’s residents were born outside of Canada, and over 180 different nationalities are represented in Toronto. 

With multiculturalism comes a vibrant and exciting food scene, with cuisine from all over the world. Foodies will love a trip to Toronto’s St Lawrence Market, one of the best food markets in the world, or Kensington Market, where foods from around the globe find their home in one exciting place.

Aside from exploring food, anyone visiting Toronto for the first time will certainly want to spend time in the busy downtown area, visiting attractions such as the famous CN Tower and Ripley’s Aquarium, and shopping in the ever-popular Eaton Centre.
