Welcome to Old Toronto!

You’re about to explore the historic heart of Canada’s largest city, where Victorian architecture, public art, and modern landmarks coexist along streets that have witnessed over two centuries of growth.

On this walking tour, we’ll explore iconic sculptures, historic landmarks, lively markets, and civic monuments that reveal Toronto’s story, from its early colonial beginnings to its rise as a diverse, cosmopolitan city. 

Along the way, you’ll see public art honoring both local and international artists, memorials celebrating bravery and community life, and architectural treasures that show how Toronto combined its heritage with modern growth.

Let’s start our tour at Old City Hall’s Cenotaph, a perfect place to explore Toronto’s history, culture, and artistic legacy.
