9 Things to do in Davenport That You Shouldn't Miss

May 29, 2021 Layne Dawes

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 came to this theater (theatre) to watch the play Yaga after having dinner at Chadwicks. It is a perfect size for the play that we watched. The acoustics were very good and the actors were perfect. This theater has a small bar if you care to order drinks. The cost is equivalent to other theaters that I've visited. There is also enough bathrooms for the ladies during intermission (always a concern!) Photos and recording are not allowed during the shows and the audience is requested to either mute or shut off their phones. This is not abnormal. There is parking across the street and at least two restaurants within walking distance. I also appreciated the fact that the producer recognized the fact that the theater sits on lands of the indigenous people.

Toronto Beach

Known as "The Beach" or "The Beaches," this eastern side of Toronto is a popular tourist spot as it offers a completely different flavor than downtown brings. There are plenty of historic buildings and independent specialty shops, but the main selling point is several kilometers of boardwalk surrounded by a sandy beach.

Fantastic place to walk with a view of the skyline. A family friendly place for a stroll with a view. Not far from coffee and shops for a bite to eat.
