    But not everywhere it is as hectic as on Dundas street. This is one of the quiet sidestreets. I caught this man in my camera lens standing there for a while taking his time to read the newspaper. Behind me there was the noise of the busy Dundas street. And in front this man and behind him one of the many little fruit and vegetable stands. Such a contrast with the hustle and bustle on Dundas Street!

    I went into a little store that was selling herbs and health food specialties. I was so amazed by all the things that were for sale. I had no clue what I was looking at. And of course I am curious and I would like to know what it is. So here is a question for you..... please tell me if you know what this is! Not that I am going to buy it, hahaha, I am just very curious. And to be honest.... I found it actually kind of creepy seeing this in the store ;-)

    We were told that Toronto has the largest China Town in North America. I had always assumed San Franciso has the largest China Town. But according to the tour book we used it said Toronto had the largest. We ate at a Chinese Restaurant here. Authenic Chinese food is so delicious and so different from what you buy at the local corner carry out.

    Chinatown is located on Dundas St between University Ave and Spadina Ave. There are real, not americanized Chinese restaurants in this area.

    From our hotel we walked to Chinatown. Most of Toronto was pretty clean and well taken care off but Chinatown was different. I did enjoy it and Torontos Chinatown was big. Quite a few blocks long. There were alot of people walking around in the streets and the sidewalks were busy with fruit and veggie stands. It was very interesting walking around. They say that Toronto has the third largest Cinese community in the world. So, its definitely a spot to check out while you are in Toronto. Most of the stores stay open pretty late.

  • Directions: The heart of chinatown is located at Spadina Ave and Dundas St.

    I love the city Chinatown. It really and truly adds atmosphere to the city. One of my favorite hobbies is to drive a visitor through Chinatown and to then say: There, try convince yourself that you are still in North America! The city Chinatown is large. Incredibly it is right next to the heart of downtown city. That means if you are downtown anyway, you are not far at all from Chinatown. There is so much to say about this beautiful area plenty pictures too, that I made a separate album on Chinatown. To continue reading and seeing pictures on this area, click here: Toronto Chinatown and then scroll down until you reach the album. Here are some pictures to start you off: (There are more in the album!) Click here to return to my Toronto Page Click here to return to my VT Homepage

  • Address: Corner Dundas and Spadina
  • Directions: I am not sure where the exact borders are. The main area is corner Dundas and Spadina. If you at Yonge and Dundas (north side of Eaton Centre) procede west along Dundas. You do not have far at all to go until you reach Chinatown.

    Reflecting Toronto's enormous diversity, the Chinatown here is one of the largest, most colorful, and most interesting of any. The food and the shopping here are terrific. Next to Chinatown is Kensington Market, another great place to eat and shop.

    Christy and I were amazed by all the groceries that sat along the street in Chinatown. We enjoyed the atmosphere of walking up and down Spadina Ave. and looking in all the shops and markets. At one point she picked up a Buddha statue and after that, the man working kept bringing her Buddha statues, talking to her in his native language which neither of us could understand. He was so adorable!!! Unfortunately she had no intentions of purchasing a Buddha statue. We were also surprised to see the proudly displayed meats hanging in each butcher shop's windows. It's nothing like we've ever seen here!

  • Chinatown is an excellent place to go and buy fresh fruits and vegetables. I think Saturday would be the best day to walk around in chinatown and do some shopping. It's crowded, but not overcrowded and there are lots of fruitstands to choose from. Because it is so nice and busy it's a lot of fun to walk around and to watch the people around you. Hahaha, I might not take a lot of photos of people but I do love to watch people, seeing all the different characters and personalities passing by.
