What are the best things to do in Toronto?

1. Fort York National Historic Site

Visit an important battlefield from Canada’s early years

适合： 家庭, 历史, 照片

Fort York played quite an important role in the early years of the city of Toronto. It was built in 1793 to protect the fledgling settlement and was then destroyed during the Battle of York, in the War of 1812. However, it was quickly rebuilt to protect the town of York from future raids. The site is now home to Canada’s largest collection of buildings from the period, allowing visitors a glimpse back into history. Visit in summer for the best experience, when you’ll see special events and exhibits, including reenactors in military uniforms of the time. 阅读更多内容

7. Toronto City Hall

Take a selfie by the 3D Toronto sign

适合： 情侣/夫妇, 家庭, 照片, 经济

The square in front of Toronto City Hall is often bustling as people enjoy sitting by the fountain and the 3D Toronto sign. With 3-metre-tall letters, it’s quite an iconic spot for a selfie. There’s also a good café in the square, with plenty of other options nearby. The look of the building itself is a little controversial. Some call it striking and futuristic, cheering when it appeared in a 1989 episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Others call it ugly (especially when compared to Toronto Old City Hall, which is next door), cheering when it was blown up in 2004’s Resident Evil: Apocalypse.

8. CN Tower

Enjoy dinner with a view at the 360 Restaurant

适合： 情侣/夫妇, 家庭, 照片

CN Tower is undoubtedly the most iconic structure on the Toronto skyline and, at 553.3 metres, is among the tallest free-standing structures in the world. Enjoying the view from the top is one of the essential things to do in Toronto - you can’t really say you’ve seen the city until you’ve seen it from the 346-metre-high LookOut Level! Glass-fronted elevators carry you up there for views right across the city and the nearby Lake Ontario. There’s even a section with a glass floor, so the views also go straight down, too. It’s undoubtedly the best place to enjoy the sunset, but you can make it even more romantic by booking a table at the revolving 360 Restaurant. 阅读更多内容

Visit trendy eateries in an artistic part of Toronto
