The 10 Best Things to do in Bay Street Corridor, Canada

January 28, 2022 Natalie Tallman

We've heard Toronto described as "New York City run by the Swiss," and it's true—you can find world-class theater, shopping and restaurants here, but the sidewalks are clean and the people are friendly. The best place to start is literally at the top—the CN Tower, the tallest freestanding structure in the Western Hemisphere.

We visited the Ontario Legislative Building to have a look at the outside architecture and grounds, which were lovely. An additional surprise was the free guided half hour tour of the main chamber and corridors of the building. Our guide was really informative and explained the history of the regional government as well as how it works today. We found it really interesting and it was really nice to go inside and have a look around.

Osgoode Hall is a classic 2 1/2 story late Palladian style structure built in 1829-32 and named for the 1st chief justice of Upper Canada. It is currently the home of the Law Society of Ontario. This Canadian national historic site was enlarged in 1844,1855,1880 and 1891 and it's great library houses the largest private collection of legal material in Canada. This 6 acre site is located in the heart of Toronto and is surrounded by a cast iron fence built in 1867. It was closed the day we visited and we would like to come back to see the inside of this regal property.

Just attended the matinee performance of the Nutcracker on December 08, 2018. I highly recommend this attraction that continues through to December 30, 2018 whether you are a fan of the ballet or not. A fine example of modern day theatrical magic and wonder for all ages. Easy access in the heart of Toronto by nearby TTC subway university line at the corner of University and Queen St w. If you prefer to drive, there is parking available in the parking garage entry from York St. We were able to park inside, and leave our coats in the car, walk through the warm parking garage and take the elevator up to the theater entrance. There is a large bright lobby with some areas to sit and relax before the doors open to the theater. Refreshment is available and you can pre-order for the intermission.

For flamboyant fun with lots of color, laughter, and amazing spectacles, Pride Toronto is the place to be. It's one of biggest gay pride festivals in the world with an incredible parade, live music, and DJs, and has attracted top stars such as Cyndi Lauper and Pussy Riot to celebrate the LGBT community in the Toronto area. The city takes on a colorful hue as its diverse community celebrates solidarity through music, conferences, and three incredible parades: Trans Pride, Dyke March, and the massive Pride Parade with floats, fancy dress, and feathers. It’s a fabulous chance to dress up and join the crowds of thousands in one of the biggest cultural events in North America covering 22 blocks of the city.
