Official Toronto Visitor Guide

Built by the imaginations of residents and visitors alike. Toronto is a city of

rare openness, energy, style, and surprise. Where else but in this new creative city

can you find a fairytale castle, the world’s tallest building, a museum with a

crystalline facade and even a school built on stilts in the sky?

Toronto is an unfolding city — where a world-renowned arts community thrives on the mosaic of culturally diverse neighborhoods, and where the unlimited potential of everyone is celebrated wholeheartedly through food, music, festivals, and the everyday.

Toronto is now the fifth-largest city in North America. Its continual growth

and constant renewal brings a lot to the visitor experience – every time you return

to Toronto, there’s something new. The waterfront is being revitalized, new growth

is encouraging neighbourhoods such as Leslieville, Liberty Village, Gerrard India

Bazaar. Cabbagetown, and Ronces-valles to thrive, and the city is undergoing an

architectural renaissance that can be seen across the cityscape. From the Art

Gallery of Ontario’s expansion to the Michael Lee-Chin Crystal at the Royal Ontario Museum and the newly opened Four Seasons Centre for the reforming Arts, Toronto is changing dramatically to reflect the creative spirit of our time. The result is an imaginative place that, as it grows, never ceases to surprise.

The city’s cultural diversity is a hallmark of open-mindedness; here, Torontonians embrace r differences to create a world within a city where experience is a collaboration of 100 cultures, the millions of people who celebrate in our street

festivals and the unique personalities expressed in each of our neighbourhoods.

Toronto is also a city built from the limitless imaginations of the people who come here t visit. It’s a centre of openness and experimentation, where guests to Toronto contribute "the energy of the streets, the dynamic vibe in our restaurants and

a thoughtful appreciation for the art in theatres, parks, galleries, and attractions.

You’ll soon discover that the city’s spirit sings, dances, draws and rises to many

occasions in different forms.

All of Greater Toronto is a stage. Whether you find yourself in one of the city’s three theatre districts, or coloring one of our many museums and galleries, Toronto will inspire you as it unfolds. You could find yourself learning the complete history of footwear at the Bata Shoe Museum, on stage at the original Second City Comedy Club, on a nature trail, marveling at Group of Seven works, or in the middle of an impromptu jam session of your favourite rock band at re Horseshoe tavern. Never tried sushi? Never ridden a streetcar? Never canoed through re Toronto Islands, sat behind home plate at a Toronto Blue Jays game, touched the Stan-ley Cup, toured a working castle and stood on the glass floor inside of the CN Tower, the world’s tallest building, all in one day? You can do it here. And once you do, you won’t be re same.

is encouraging neighbourhoods such as Leslieville, Liberty Village, Gerrard India Bazaar. Cabbagetown, and Ronces-valles to thrive, and the city is undergoing an architectural renaissance that can be seen across the cityscape. From the Art Gallery of Ontario’s expansion to the Michael Lee-Chin Crystal at the Royal Ontario Museum and the newly opened Four Seasons Centre for the reforming Arts, Toronto is changing dramatically to reflect the creative spirit of our time. The result is an imaginative place that, as it grows, never ceases to surprise.

The city’s cultural diversity is a hallmark of open-mindedness; here, Torontonians embrace r differences to create a world within a city where experience

is a collaboration of 100 cultures, the millions of people who celebrate in our street

festivals and the unique personalities expressed in each of our neighbourhoods.

 Toronto is also a city built from the limitless imaginations of the people who

come here to visit. It’s a centre of openness and experimentation, where guests to

You’ll soon discover that the city’s spirit sings, dances, draws and rises to many

occasions in different forms.

All of Greater Toronto is a stage. Whether you find yourself in one of the city’s three theatre districts, or coloring one of our many museums and galleries, Toronto will inspire you as it unfolds.

Never tried sushi? Never ridden a streetcar? Never canoed through re Toronto Islands, sat behind home plate at a Toronto Blue Jays game, touched the Stan-ley Cup, toured a working castle and stood on the glass floor inside of the CN Tower, the world’s tallest building, all in one day? You can do it here. And once you do, you won’t be re same.
