Top 9 Museums in The Annex, Canada

December 15, 2021 Augustus Redeker

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.

Surprising how much you can learn about history in general by focusing on one item, in this case shoes. When I visited there was a Manolo Blahnik exhibit that was great fun to peruse. The other exhibits were: All About Shoes: Footwear Through the Ages – Semi-permanent - This is the CORE of the Museum, this is where you take the time to look, read, and think about EVERY display. The Gold Standard: Glittering Footwear From Around Globe and Art and Innovation: Traditional Arctic Footwear =- both of these were interesting and informative. Excellent reminder that small museums have a lot to offer! Plus I appreciate being able to see all of the exhibits, not leaving with a feeling that I've missed something. I see I'm going to have to choose 1-2 hours or 2-3 hours so I want to mention here that you CAN do this well in 2 hours, but you could also make it closer to three hours if you wanted to. Small but well curated gift shop.
