Kensington Market
You might have heard about this hip and alternative area that you have to walk through? It’s likely Kensington Market – and you should definitely check it out. Kensington is located to the west of Spadina Avenue, north of downtown, between College and Dundas Streets. It’s close to Chinatown if you want to see that too – we mention it below!
This urban jungle of graffiti, cool clothing shops, amazing restaurants, markets, almost certainly has something for everyone. You don’t even have to be looking for anything – just a wander through to experience the neighbourhood is enough. You can’t miss things like the Garden Car – you’ll know it when you see it. Trust us.
Pro Tip: Kensington is a uniquely old and multicultural neighbourhood with a fascinating immigrant history about it. So, it’s fitting to learn more about the history of Kensington Market through a food tour!
