The Distillery District is one of the most popular locations in Toronto, and not only for the many filming productions that are regular guests here. This consequential district is the former Gooderham and Worts Distillery and has one of the finest collections of Victorian-era heritage buildings.

The distillery once belonged among largest of such districts in the entire world. Today, this Countrywide Consequential Site is a popular neighbourhood boosting cafs, trattorias, and shops that's successfully bringing art, culture, and entertainment into this vibrant area in Central Toronto.

If you're an enthusiastic fan of art, you'll appreciate the glass and aluminum design of the entrance to the Royal Ontario Museum and the geometrical sorts of The Crystal by Daniel Libeskind. Opened in 2007, it really puts the ROM, Canada's hugest museum of world culture and natural history, on the shortlist of Toronto's landmarks.



Union Station is one of the most busy commuter train stations, and it lies in the exact heart of the Monetary District. It's maybe one of the first locations you can see when arriving in Toronto. With the daily numbers of more than 200,000 passengers served, the station services inter-city trains, GO Transit trains and buses, and the TTC train and streetcar system. When you are not in a hurry for work, slow down and take a more in-depth look at the beautiful architecture of this station, listed as a State Historic Site.



This attractive Medieval Castle that goes named "the house on the hill" takes you back in time and allows you to roam dreamily around its corridors and along its 98 rooms. Casa Loma might be over a century old, but it will continue to draw big lots of visitors in every year. If you choose to visit the castle, you can explore its secret passageways, 800-foot tunnel, breath-taking towers, grand staircase, or check out its stunning interiors. Casa Loma belongs to the top filming locations in Toronto, making an appearance in Hollywood hits like X-Men, Scott Traveller vs. The World, Chicago and many more.
