Sightseeing
This is an amazing place for kids of all ages. Had a wonderful time here with my family. So many fishes and sea creatures of different sizes, shapes, and colors. The best part is the shark tank and touching the stingrays. A must do in Toronto

Great place for anyone visiting Toronto or even staying here. The rotating restaurant is great. Although you may feel dizzy for a few minutes the experience is at another level. The food here is probably the best in town, tried different dishes and they were all done to the highest of standards. The staff is very knowledgeable and very friendly. This is a great spot for a birthday, anniversary or any special occasion.

Nice and lively outdoors, many bars and restaurants are concentrated in this area. Clothing and decor shops too ( there’s also a candle store). Steep but interesting and great food and drinks. Lights and sculptures outdoors lend it more charm and appeal. Lively place to even go for a late evening stroll; when everywhere else would be shut but this place still had crowds and a festive environment despite the closed stores and eateries. Great place to take pictures too

Any hockey fan should visit this place once. The quantity of memorabilia is astonishing. Seeing the history of hockey right in front of you is beautiful. I didn't take many pictures because I was so busy looking at the expo and reading history. You can easily spend 4-5 hours in there.
