Though there are many hundreds of events to participate and enjoy in Toronto, we've managed to thin them out and provide only the best of the best this city has to offer.

1. CN Tower Edgewalk

The CN Tower is Toronto's most iconic landmark. Built in 1975, it reigned as the world's tallest building until 2007. While the CN Tower is a top Toronto Attraction unto itself, it's the Edgwalk that makes it special.

2. Visit Chinatown

One of Toronto's most vibrant neighbourhoods in the downtown Chinatown located on Spadina Avenue. Pick up your favourite Asian vegetables for authentic cooking, eat incredible Chinese food and ask for a pot of tea after hours (you'll get a pot of beer if you know where to go!) You really fell as if you have stepped into little China with the sounds, smells and taste of Asia engulfing the senses at every turn. If you travel a lot, this is a great place to get that dose of Asia you've been missing.

3. Toronto Internaitonal Film Festival

You’re in the film capital of Canada and the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) is a chance to take in not just the best of Canadian cinema, but a carefully curated list of movies from around the globe. No matter what your favorite genre may be, the programmers have chosen something for you. After the festival is said and done, the TIFF theatre plays fan favorites throughout the year.
