| - Walking among the Victorian Industrial buildings you are transported to a different era with all the brick structures and cobblestone paths: a lovely place to tour.
Designated as a national historic site - "Our vision was to combine the romance and relaxing atmosphere of European walking and patio districts with the hip, cool dynamic of an area like New York City's SoHo or Chelsea, where creative minds get together and you feel as if anything could happen." - website
Many interesting shops: specialty chocolates, art galleries and studios, and restaurants with the cutests patios.
Great place for photo ops during the day with various sculptures like the War of the Worlds size spider, a fantastical beast, a heart arch and the Love lock fence. At night there's twinkling lights illuminating the walkways and patios of the different restaurants.
Host to a number of events: plays, weekly Sunday market, Music City Summer Series, Oktoberfest, Toronto Light Festival, Doors Open, and Vocal Arts Festival. Definitely a destination spot for tourists and Toronto residents alike.
