The price is not expensive and it is worth going. There are really a lot of representative Chinese cultural relics in it. Those who really know a little will be amazed after seeing it. It is recommended to read the introduction before visiting the museum. Otherwise, it will be a pity. You will feel like you have seen everything but remember nothing. It is a must-visit museum in Canada.
Ctrip's ticket booking was very good this time. Although there was a time difference, the order was confirmed in a few minutes! And the price was cheaper than buying it on site! The museum is rich in content and worth appreciating slowly, especially the China Pavilion!

After my visit to Ripley's Aquarium of Canada, I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The aquarium is located in the heart of downtown Toronto and is a must-visit attraction for anyone in the area.
As soon as you enter, you are transported into an underwater world with stunning exhibits that showcase a variety of aquatic life. From sharks and stingrays to sea turtles and jellyfish, there is something for everyone to see.
One of the highlights of the aquarium is the Dangerous Lagoon exhibit, which features a moving walkway that takes you through an underwater tunnel surrounded by sharks and other marine life. It's a thrilling experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
The aquarium also offers a range of interactive experiences, such as the Touch Tank, where visitors can get up close and personal with a variety of creatures, including horseshoe crabs and sea stars. There are also daily shows and feedings that provide a deeper understanding of the animals and their behavior.
Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Ripley's Aquarium of Canada. It's a fun and educational experience that is perfect for all ages. The exhibits are well-maintained, and the staff are knowledgeable and passionate about their work. It's definitely worth adding to your list of must-visit attractions in Toronto.

A great park for a walk. Be sure to visit the botanical gardens. We also caught the end of the tulip gardens which were also beautiful. It was not a problem to find a place to park on a Monday afternoon. The patches on the trees and bushes were also interesting!
After returning from Toronto Island, I saw that it was still early, so I casually checked that there was a tourist attraction called Highland Park in Toronto, so I took the bus from Chinatown and walked all the way back to the hotel. The number of steps I took that day exceeded 35,000.

i went to edwards gardens few times, it just nearby where i live. they even have some farmer markets during summer time.
The gardens are great, a little old. It's a real green garden with lots of trees, flowers, paths and greenhouses. The only thing that's not great is the cafe, which looks like it was opened later, doesn't have a great atmosphere and is too expensive.
