Toronto: Audio Guided Walking Tour (3 hours - 23 audio reviews)

Included in the giant complex of St. Lawrence Market, this important building is only the southern part. In fact, two other structures complete the list.

Clearly, Toronto's reputation is well established and some of its particularities are true in their own right. Its lifestyle, its cultural identity and its unique style make Canada's largest city what it is.

A hub for interurban transportation in the region, Toronto Union Station has served more than 300,000 travelers a day since it opened in 1927. This figure is much higher than the number of passengers at the country's most popular airport.

An essential part of the Toronto skyline, the CN Tower is Canada's most recognized symbol. Before gaining all this fame, the immense masterpiece of engineering had primarily a practical purpose.

A major construction project on former railway land, the Skywalk is an enclosed footbridge that is an integral part of the Toronto Path. The locals know the latter well. It is a 30-kilometer network of pedestrian tunnels connecting subway stations, office buildings, shops, hotels and shopping centers in Toronto.

A music temple in Toronto, Roy Thomson Hall opened in 1982. Since 2002, the internationally renowned Orchestre Symphonique de la Ville has been home to its unusual, inclined circular architecture, made of glass and unusual.

In a city where our eyes are easily lost in height from one skyscraper to another, it is true that it is shady to have to focus your attention on the ground, and yet. Launched in 1998, Canada's Walk of Fame honors, through a series of stars, the success and work of great Canadian personalities.

A surprising piece of history, lost in this vast ultra-futuristic glass window, St Andrew's Church challenges our curiosity. Designed in 1876 by a Canadian architect and businessman, this religious building was used from the beginning to house a Presbyterian Church congregation where lay people were elected to lead it.

One of the most well-known sections of Toronto, Queen Street West is always bustling with energy, with its numerous dining options, independent shops, and art galleries.

It is true that in the contemporary architectural genre, here, we are more used to tall glass towers rather than this type of building. Far from being trivial, the Sharp Centre for Design opened its doors in 2004 as part of a project to expand the campus of OCAD University, the Ontario School of Art and Design.

Recognized as one of the most beautiful museums in North America, the Art Gallery of Ontario is far from being in an old building, contrary to what we are used to seeing. Neither the municipality, nor any public body, was responsible for the creation of this place in 1900.

Before crossing the road, stop for a moment and look to your left. You are on University Avenue. A significant number of the city's most serious institutions are located on either side of this broad eight-lane artery.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, with its flashy and bright scene, Yonge-Dundas Square is one of Toronto's main hubs. Officially opened to the public in 2003, through a downtown renovation project, this square is a unique meeting place for the 56 million people who frequent it every year.

Dividing the city from north to south, Yonge Street is the main route to our destination. Designed by John Graves Simcoe, first lieutenant, governor of Upper Canada and founder of Toronto, the artery was an integral part of the planning of concession roads, developed in Ontario by the colonial government.

Known as the oldest and most honored concert hall in the country, Massey Music Hall is the monument that gave new impetus to the music industry in Toronto.

An image of modernism as it is well done in the city, Toronto City Hall is one of Toronto's most recognizable landmarks. Inaugurated in 1965, this impressive achievement is the result of the largest architectural competition ever conducted by a city.

More than just the square in front of City Hall, Nathan Phillips Square, named in memory of a former mayor of Toronto, is THE city's central square. Inaugurated in 1965 on the former 20th century immigrant neighborhood, called The Ward, this place is one of the main hosts of festivals and various seasonal events.

Far from being as stylish as its successor, the former Toronto City Hall is one of the most representative monuments in the city's history. When it opened in 1899, after 10 years of work, this Romanesque Revival building was the largest municipal building in all of North America.

An illustrious district in the city center, the Financial District is hardly invisible with its concentration of buildings that make us dizzy. While Montreal is in control of Canada's financial industry, Toronto nuances its historic face by integrating a series of towers into its landscape. And this step aside, towards modernity, will benefit him.

Although its main function is only a pedestrian bridge, between the two Brookfield towers, the Allen Lambert Gallery, named after the former president of the Toronto-Dominion Bank, is a true piece of modern architecture.

Housed in the former Bank of Montreal building since 1993, the Hockey Hall of Fame is a true declaration of love for the Canadian sport par excellence. Initially planned to be inaugurated more than 200 km away in the city of Kingston, where hockey was said to have originated, it was finally in Toronto that this institution was created on August 26, 1961.

A silhouette more than emblematic of Toronto, the Gooderham building exudes a crazy magnetism of yesteryear. Before its big appearance in 1891, at the intersection of Front and Wellington streets, the corner was occupied by its smaller and shorter ancestor, the Coffin Block.

Opened in 2013, the Rod Robbie Bridge is an elegant elevated pedestrian bridge that connects Front West Street to the CN Tower and Rogers Centre area. By taking it, you follow an outdoor itinerary that pays tribute to one of Toronto's most significant architects, Rod Robbie, author in particular of the
