[2025 Markham Attraction] Travel Guide for Unionville (Updated May)

A little above Toronto is Unionville. It's a European-style town with lots of cute shops! Especially the main street is lined with stylish cafes and restaurants, so no matter where you take a photo, it's sure to look great on Instagram! The gelato here is famous, so you should definitely go! For lunch, I went to Il Postino, where the mushroom pasta was delicious and unforgettable. Please be sure to visit here too. It's about an hour from Toronto on the Go train, so if you like the European atmosphere, I recommend it. #Canada #Toronto #SummerShortTrip #100TravelStyles

I went inside this art gallery and i was so surprised! This art gallery is just within the area of Unionville. The art displayed has a digital content wherein you can download an app and the art becomes active! so nice! It was also my first time to use Virtual Reality (VR) and it was amazing. I also came into this artist Chun Hua Catherine Dong "i have been there" wherein she is in different places and she is just there lying down. Such a unique artist! #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers #varleyartgallery

I was looking into some historic places or landmarks in Scarborough Area and found one place near Markham. It is an hour bus ride from Warden Station and I took the trip. I was not disappointed because the place was so nice. The houses look so good and the area has a different style in housing. It is probably European style community. They also have lots of lights in the area which made it more pleasing. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers
