10 Things to do in Discovery District That You Shouldn't Miss

December 31, 2021 Weston Hennigan

We've heard Toronto described as "New York City run by the Swiss," and it's true—you can find world-class theater, shopping and restaurants here, but the sidewalks are clean and the people are friendly. The best place to start is literally at the top—the CN Tower, the tallest freestanding structure in the Western Hemisphere.

We visited the Ontario Legislative Building to have a look at the outside architecture and grounds, which were lovely. An additional surprise was the free guided half hour tour of the main chamber and corridors of the building. Our guide was really informative and explained the history of the regional government as well as how it works today. We found it really interesting and it was really nice to go inside and have a look around.

Queen's Park

Ontario's provincial parliament buildings, fine examples of high Victorian architecture.

Reviewed By Bretton1809 - Toronto, Canada

It's a good spot for a 'brown bag' lunch on one of the park benches. Lots of old trees and feel safe.
