Sightseeing

The iconic Centre piece of the Toronto skyline is a fun way to get a look at the city from above. If you're not scared of heights there is a section with a glass floor. If you want to skip the lines, make a reservation at the restaurant at the top.

Toronto is crazy about its basketball team, the Raptors. Last year's champions have so many fans that they can't fit in to the Rogers Centre. Outside they come to Jurassic Park " where sports fans gather for important games.

Cultuur en gebruiken

Multicultural

Toronto is officially the most multicultural city in the world. More than half our population was born outside Canada. This has done wonders for our food scene. Canadians are generally very open to new immigrants. We understand English in any accent, so there is no need to apologize for yours if you have one. We are a shy and polite bunch until you get to know us, but don't hesitate to ask for directions. People will be helpful.
