Join poets and presenters Manahil Bandukwala and Hana Shafi for a fun-filled workshop on how to nurture your relationship to poetry in everyday life.

我青青来了

It is mid-September, there are no flowers, but it is still very comfortable, full of green eyes, fresh air, blue sky and white clouds, the park is not big, in the city center, a good walk 👍.

Best Things to Do

The Canadian National TV Tower is really impressive. Take the high-speed elevator to the top quickly and stand on the glass floor viewing platform overlooking Toronto city and Lake Ontario with a beautiful view. The revolving restaurant experience is also great, enjoying the panoramic view while enjoying the food. It is a Toronto landmark and worth a visit.

Casa Roman Castle is truly amazing! From the moment you step in, it seems to be back to medieval Europe. The castle is unique in style, with gothic spires and exquisite carvings, showing the luxury and mystery. The interior is even more gorgeous, with elegant study rooms and mysterious towers, each room full of stories. The tower overlooks downtown Toronto with a panoramic view and intoxicating.

Art Gallery of Ontario
