Toronto Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see BCE Place BCE Place Toronto and its greater metropolitan area has a population of almost four and a half million and is the fifth largest city in North America (2002). It is the most ethnically-diverse city in the world according to the U.N. and offers much to attract any visitor. Besides the harsh winters, Toronto is one of the best places to live in the world. Perhaps its most well known landmark is the CN Tower - the world's tallest free-standing structure. It is situated in Toronto’s Harbourfront district near the Rogers Centre (formerly Skydome), home of the Toronto Blue Jays professional baseball club, and the Argonauts of the Canadian Football League. Also in the area is the Air Canada Centre, home to the NBA’s Raptors and the NHL’s Maple Leafs. Explore some of Canada's best museums and galleries including the Royal Ontario Museum and the Art Gallery of Ontario. Toronto has many opera houses, orchestras and dance companies. It is the third largest theatre centre in the English-speaking world. For Americanized theatre check out Ed Mirvish Productions of popular shows. For Canadian Theatre check out CanStage, the Factory Theatre, Harbourfront Theatre, Theatre Passe Muraille, or the Artword Theatre. _________Sights Edit This CN Tower; world's highest observation deck CN Tower; world's highest observation deck J.

Each set of cameras is presented with a map illustrating camera locations. Before travelling between points in the Toronto area, you can jump from camera to camera, and get a sense of what traffic will be like on your route. To illustrate the system, visit the information page for the Highway 401 traffic cameras at Highway 401. Toronto also has an excellent subway/streetcar/bus system. The Yonge-University-Spadina subway line runs in a U shape from Finch station in the North East area of the city, south under Yonge Street to Union Station near Lake Ontario and then North on University/Spadina West on the Allen Expressway to Downsview station (near Sheppard Ave West). The Bloor-Danforth line runs East-West and the newer Sheppard line in the North East corner of the city, from Yonge to Don Mills. Streetcars are plentiful downtown, running on every major road and buses run throughout the rest of the city. Current cost as of June 2005 is $2.50/adult or $7.75 for a day pass which allows unlimited travel from 9am to 5am the next day for up to 2 adults and 2 children. The TTC also offers weekly, transferrable unlimited use passes. There is also the option to buy a Metropass for $98.50/month. It should also be noted that the TTC operates 24 hours on at least 25 of their lines, with maximum waits of 30 minutes during overnight hours. The Yonge 320 Blue Night Bus and the Bloor Danforth 300 Blue Night Bus operate 15 minutes or better. At most subway stations, you should be able to request the TTC Ride Guide, which has a regional map of services by the TTC and surrounding agencies. As a rule of thumb, there's rarely a wait over five minutes for a subway car, and rarely a twenty minute wait for buses or streetcars (on primary lines). During rush periods, try to avoid the Yonge Subway between Bloor and Union Station, the Queen 501 Streetcar and King 504 Streetcar. These lines frequently operate PAST CAPACITY and can create an uncomfortable ride if you are transporting children or carrying baggage.
