Ontario, Canada

Toronto

Toronto is Canada's largest city and one of the most culturally diverse on earth — 200+ languages spoken, neighborhoods that function as distinct cultural enclaves (Chinatown, Little Italy, Little Portugal, Greektown, Kensington Market), and a food scene that reflects the immigration waves that built the city. The CN Tower defined the skyline for 30 years; the Distillery District redefined urban revitalization. The ROM (Royal Ontario Museum) is legitimately world-class; the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario), redesigned by Frank Gehry in 2008, houses the largest collection of Henry Moore sculptures outside England. Toronto is also a sports city in the obsessive Canadian mode: Raptors, Leafs, Blue Jays, and TFC all have downtown venues within walking distance of each other. The waterfront is underutilized relative to its potential but improving. The city rewards people who explore beyond the downtown core into its neighborhoods.

Getting there & around

Pearson International (YYZ) is 27 km northwest — UP Express train (25 min, CAD $12.35) runs directly to Union Station downtown, every 15 minutes. Taxis/Uber from YYZ run CAD $60–75. Once downtown, the TTC subway and streetcar system covers most of the city (single fare CAD $3.30, day pass CAD $13.50). A Presto card saves slightly vs. cash. The PATH underground walkway (30 km, longest in the world) connects most of downtown in winter without going outside — useful November through March when temperatures drop to -10°C to -20°C. Walking is the best way to experience the neighborhoods; most of the interesting stuff in Kensington, Queen West, and the Distillery District is compact and pedestrian-oriented.
