Discovering Canada's Biggest City! (First Impressions of Toronto, Canada) 🇨🇦

Our first time back in Toronto after 5 years abroad!
Whenever we travel, we always say that we are from Toronto.
But we actually live outside of the city, and don't really go to Toronto that often.
So it was interesting to be back to get a first impressions after so many years away.
Toronto has changed! On this video, we highlighted the bad and good of Toronto.
Check out our vlog as we tour downtown Toronto, and visited Toronto's most famous tourist attractions: CN Tower, Rogers Centre (home of the Toronto Blue Jays), Steam Whistle Brewery, Nathan Phillips Square, Toronto City Hall, Dundas Square, Little Canada, and Toronto Waterfront.
We hope you get some useful tips and inspiration of the best things to do in Toronto, the world's most multicultural city.

You have your pick of hundreds of restaurants around Toronto with cuisine from around the world. I am a Torontorian myself born and raised in the east end of Toronto spent my early childhood in Regent Park and then my adult years in the west end of Toronto in Etobicoke. 😊

    I visited the new city hall site with my parents when there was nothing there but a sign that read: "Site of the New Toronto City Hall & Civic Square. Design of Viljo Revel Selected in World Wide Competition". Transcribed from a photograph that I have of me standing in front of the sign with my mother. Viljo Revel was a Finn.

    My wife and I went to Toronto soon after we met in 2008. Also saw the Niagara falls and went to a baseball game for the first (and only so far) time. Really liked the city. We stayed with relatives in Oakville and also visited Mississauga. We are looking forward to going back some time now that our daughter is old enough to go with us. By the way did you know that the new city hall was designed by a Finn called Viljo Revell? Greeting from Finland 👋

    Gotta do GRAFFITI ALLEY! It’s a great city for tourism. You showed downtown but didn’t go in the Eaton Centre, Hockey Hall of Fame, CNE, or up to Yorkville for the posh boutiques and restaurants. There’s Kew (or Woodbine)beach in the east end + Sunnyside & Cherry beach, High Park, Centre Island with amusement rides, beaches and picnic park areas, just outside the north end there’s Canada’s Wonderland, the beauty of Union Station I could go on & on there are so many unique places and things to see and do I don’t understand why you’d say it’s not a good tourist destination.
