Chinatown Toronto

Established in 1878, Chinatown is one of Toronto’s oldest and most dynamic neighbourhoods. You’ll find bustling produce markets that spill out onto the street, numerous shops and food stalls, neon signs and a plethora of cuisines (not only Chinese— here’s a strong Vietnamese contingent too, for example).

Things to do in Chinatown Toronto:

• Strolling Spadina Chinatown for the tastiest Peking duck, or taking your pick of Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese eats
• House of Gourmet for their renowned wonton-brisket-noodle-soup

• Sonic Boom, a cavernous emporium for new and used music, books … and candy
