Aight so for spring break I’m going to Niagra Falls and Toronto… fer about 4-5 days. I was wondering whats the interesting stuff to do in Toronto? I’ve never been to Canada myself so I have no idea what to do there, but I’m still excited! :beam: ---

I’ve lived in toronto all my life (30 years). Great city. Your coming at the perfect time - the weather is finally starting to warm up. It’s a very metropilitan city. Great restaurants, bars, nightlife, events, all that good stuff. There is so much to do - you can’t go wrong! ---

Could you be more specific? I’m not really interested in the nightlife, I’m coming with my parents and I’m only 16. Although, restaurant suggestions wouldn’t go amiss 🙂 ---

In Niagara Falls - you obviously will see the falls, the IMAX theatre is okay, you should hit Niagara Fallsview Casino, not just gambling there - good food and shopping plus a great view of the falls. In toronto, #1 tourist attraction is the CN Tower. You could go to a blue jays game at the rogers centre - tickets are very cheap. As far as areas go - yorkville is great - good shopping/restaurants and nice walking area. College street (littly italy is nice too) - great restaurants all along the street. If your looking for shopping then queen street and bloor street is the place to be. As long as your in the downtown core (bloor to king) and west of yonge street (the longest street in the WORLD) you’ll be ok. ---

'Bout an hour and a half. Be sure to go up the CN tower and catch a Leafs game. Preferably a Leafs vs. Flames game so you can watch Toronto get destroyed 🏒 ---

Yeah, Bloor, Queen, and Younge streets are where it’s at, lots of cool shops there, especially on Queen St… CN Tower is kinda cool, you get to stand on a glass floor that’s, like, higher than a skyscraper and stuff, but it’s expensive to get in it and loses its novelty after like 15 minutes. ---
