What are some fun things to do in Toronto? I'm going there this weekend with my husband and I want to know what are some good things to do apart from the baseball games. We are staying in the entertainment district of downtown T.O. and our transportation is limited so we would like to stay in that area. Thanks!

The transit system is amazing in downtown Toronto...the subway and streetcars can take you many places that are awesome to visit, within no time at all. I would go to the Eaton Centre, and I would also check out Bloor St West and Yorkville ( for great higher end shopping. Also check out Queen St.West for funky shops ( and even some designer shops). And you have to visit China town as well on Spadina and Dundas (and Kensington Market close by). The Art Gallery of Ontario is also a great place to visit. I used to live in Toronto and you won't find a shortage of things to do and see.

Take a ferry to the Toronto Islands. Go up the CN Tower. See Chinatown, Kensington Market, the Ontario Art Gallery and the Royal Ontario Museum. Walk over the bridge to Ontario Place. It's fun to spend a day or evening there. These places are very close to you, and the TTC (public transprtation) is readily accesssible. Cabs are good, as well. Theatres & restaurants are within walking distance from the Stadium. So is the Eaton Centre, a marvelous & modern place to shop.

If you want to find arts/culture events, check out www.livewithculture.ca.
Unless views from tall heights *really* amaze you, don't waste your time with the CN Tower. It's too expensive for an elevator ride, and the view at the top is obscured by wire nets anyway, which make for lousy pictures.
Also, you can see a mall anywhere, so don't bother with the Eaton Centre either.
Focus on what makes Toronto unique. I'd suggest Kensington Market, Queen St. West, the Queen/Bathurst area, Cumberland, Chinatown, Little Italy, etc.
Toronto.com can be helpful.
