What are some fun things to do in Toronto?

Lie face down on the glass floor at the CN Tower It looks scary but this two-and-a-half inch thick glass floor can withstand the weight of 14 large hippos. However, looking face down at a 1,122 ft. drop is bound to give you a few butterflies. 2. Sit upstairs at Union Station during rush hour Rush hour at Union Station is a chaotic affair, with commuters scrambling to catch trains and cramming subway platforms. But while downstairs can feel claustrophobic, the Great Hall’s coffered vault ceilings upstairs offers a reprieve. You can look up and admire the stunning architecture while the chaos goes by around you. 3. Skate at Nathan Phillips Square A winter visit to Toronto wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the skating rink at Nathan Phillips Square at Toronto’s city hall. Skate rentals, indoor change rooms and snack bars are on-site. 4. Tour the Steam Whistle Brewery Tour one of Toronto’s most interesting historic buildings, The Roundhouse, while sampling one of the city’s signature beers. Steam Whistle Brewery tours are $8 to $24 (depending on whether you want to leave with a bottle opener or a 12 pack of beer) and go daily from noon to 6 p.m. 5. Have a hot chocolate at Soma in The Distillery District Once you try a steaming cup of this rich and creamy hot chocolate, made on the premises from pure, exotic ingredients, you’ll never be able to spoon out the powdery instant stuff again. 6. Do a bike tour of Toronto Island Tour Toronto’s island oasis on a bicycle. There are several ways to see the car-free island on wheels, like Sights on Bikes where for $40 you get a ferry ride, a two-hour island tour and a chance to explore special spots like the haunted lighthouse at Gibraltar Point. 7. Go shopping at Honest Ed’s With a sign lit up by 23,000 bulbs, this Toronto landmark is hard to miss. Honest Ed’s has been dishing out deals since 1948 and even claim to be the world’s first true bargain store. Household items are often cheaper than a dollar store and there’s stuff everywhere, so get ready to do some digging. 8. Walk the boardwalk at The Beach During warm months, the boardwalk (stretching 3 km along Toronto’s lakeshore) is full of skateboarders, volleyballers, bike rider, Rollerbladers, dog walkers, baby pushers, seagulls and joggers. There are swimming pools, a canoe club, lawn bowling, tennis courts and endless benches where you can chill out with an ice cream cone and watch Lake Ontario’s waves come in. 9. Go to Dundas Square Like it or hate it, it’s worth a visit to this concrete public space. With billboards, big lights, concerts and public events, Dundas Square is hailed as Toronto’s Times Square and gives visitors a taste of the bustling downtown Yonge Street. 10. Dine at a famous chef’s place Toronto has a rep as home to some of the best chefs and restaurants in the world so splurge and enjoy a meal by a famous local chef like Jamie Kennedy or Susur Lee (as seen on Iron Chef America). 11. Take a city walking tour Instead of walking around the streets aimlessly, seek out a little guidance. You’ll go home with a history of the city that most Torontonians don’t even know. There are tons of walking tours across the city, like downtown excursions, small neighbourhood tours, walks through the Don Valley and even historic tours of haunted parts of the city. Try multicultural walking tours from A Taste of the World. 12. Get out of the downtown core Many of Toronto’s neighbourhoods aren’t far from the core and offer a true Toronto experience, not just the polished perspective of tourist-heavy downtown. Each neighbourhood in Toronto is unique. You can go antique shopping in Leslieville, do an art gallery crawl in Parkdale, grab some fresh produce from Kensington Market and pay a visit to a Polish bakery in Roncesvalles. 13. Ride the Queen streetcar Almost every tourist snaps a photo of a red Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) streetcar. One-up them by taking a ride on one. There are always interesting characters on board and since it’s above ground, you can take the scenic route and check out the sights as you travel to your destination. Cash fare is $2.75 a trip or you can buy daily, weekly and family passes. 14. Go shopping in Chinatown A walk through Toronto’s Chinatown is an incredible experience, with intense crowds at all times of day, cheap goods and markets as far as the eye can see. Countless restaurants serve up dumplings, Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean cuisine, and stores have cheap clothes, housewares and electronics. 15. Have a coffee in Kensington Market This eclectic, artistic 'hood is Toronto’s people-watching central, and a great place to grab a cup of coffee. Check out Moonbean or I Deal Coffee. 17. Eat corn on the sidewalk in Little India in the summer Summertime in the Gerrard Street India Bazaar is a whirlwind of smells and colours, and many restaurants take their kitchens to the sidewalk, serving up roaste

My favourite thing to do is to go to the Beach, it is a sandy beach with a boardwalk and some great shops. There is also Canada's Wonderland, which is a huge amusement park 10 minuets from Toronto, easy to get to by public transit or car. There is also so much shopping, my favourite areas are Bloor Street and Younge Street. There are also many cultures here so there are many interesting areas such as China Town, Greek Town, Little Italy, India Town, Korea Town, Portugal town and a few others. In the summer there are also many parades and activities, every other day there is something going on.
