10Best Shopping Malls and Centers
Chinatown
(Shopping - Shopping Malls and Centers)
Spadina Ave, from Queen St to College St, Toronto
Distance: ~1.539 km *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. Although Toronto has four districts with large Chinese populations (not surprising, since more than 10% of Toronto's population is Chinese), this is the heart of the city's Chinese culture. Streets are lined with shops, apothecaries, and markets selling a large mix of traditional Chinese goods. This is the place to pick up everything from produce to porcelain at half the price of designer boutiques.

Kensington Market
(Shopping - Shopping Malls and Centers)
Baldwin St and Kensington Ave, Toronto
Distance: ~1.828 km *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. Located just west of Chinatown, this matrix of busy streets is defined by a broad offering of produce, meats and dry goods. The area becomes an open-air market on Saturday – the busiest day of the week. The market originated during British settlement in the 1790s and has since undergone many permutations due to flurries of immigration that brought in folks representing more than 30 cultural backgrounds. Bordered by Spadina Avenue, Dundas Street, Bathurst Street and College Street. Individual business hours vary, but most are open daily from 11am-7pm.

Distillery Historic District
(Shopping - Shopping Malls and Centers)
Front St and Parliament, Toronto  M5A 3C4 • 416-364-1177 • 416-642-0008
Distance: ~1.898 km *
        Description: DOWNTOWN. At the center of this district is the former Gooderham & Worts Distillery, a massive facility that, in its heyday, produced 2.1 million gallons of spirits annually. The business shut down in 1990, and the site was used as a movie location for about a decade. In 2003, the area reopened as Toronto's first pedestrian district, with a focus on the arts. The brick-lined streets are home to numerous art galleries and performance venues, cafes and retail boutiques. In record time, the National Historic Site has become one of the city's most visited shopping and entertainment districts. Tours are available (walking or via Segway) – call 416-642-0008 to reserve a space.
