TORONTO

Stopping Over

I visited Toronto a number of times during stopovers on and from my way to other Canadian destinations. On all visits I met some VT-friends (see T-logues).

To me Toronto is a perfect melting pot of people from all over the world.

Downtown Toronto is nice with nice spots along Lake Ontario.

I like the belt around the highrise part of town. If you take a walk of just half a hour, you enter China Town or any other interesting area with hidden shops and restaurants.

 Pieter, excellent travel pages of Canada. I too went up the sky tower in Toronto. You were so close to Niagara Falls & did not see them? G'day from Australia
