Toronto is Canada’s most celebrated city. With fantastic cultural attractions and plenty of interesting history and architecture, Toronto is a wonderful place to call home. If you are interested in buying a home in Toronto, this article will help ease the transition and inform your decision.

From 18th century British roots as a muddy colonial town, Toronto has burgeoned into North America’s fifth-largest city and a hot spot for films and festivals. Nearly 100 languages are spoken in its multicultural mosaic of neighborhoods. You can visit the espresso bars of Little Italy’s College Street, have mezes (Greek tapas) on Danforth Avenue or sniff the global trade winds of Kensington Market, which offers fare as varied as European cheeses and Caribbean seafood.

Like a counterweight to Francophone Montreal, Toronto is Canada’s de facto Anglophonic capital. Here you can take high tea at the Windsor Arms or sleep at the “King Eddy” hotel, where royalty once laid their heads. Walk down cobblestone streets lighted by gas lamps in the neighborhood of Old York and stop for gourmet noshes at the St. Lawrence Market. Ride a quaint streetcar east to the Distillery Historic District, where artisans, art galleries and coffeehouses jostle for space.

After dark, you can head back downtown to the city’s Entertainment District for evolving nightlife or to the Theatre Block, which boasts the world’s third-largest number of onstage productions, after New York and London. Elsewhere around the city, the music scene is vibrant. Sip a beer and listen to some tunes at the legendary Horseshoe Tavern, where Sting once played in his underwear, or the vintage blues-and-jazz dive at the Rex Hotel, both on Queen Street.

Try to time your visit to catch one of Toronto’s major festivals: indie music at North by Northeast and Pride Week celebrations in June, the Caribbean carnival of Caribana in mid-July or the Toronto International Film Festival in September. This year’s film fest, in “Hollywood North,” starts Thursday and runs through the 17th. But don’t forget to escape the city while you’re here. The awesome natural spectacle of Niagara Falls is just a two-hour drive that passes tempting detours onto the back roads of the Niagara Peninsula’s wine country, where you can taste sweet ice wine made from frozen grapes.
