2025 Ontario Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)

#falladventures You don’t need to take the boat to feel the magic of Niagara — just walking along the viewpoints is enough to fall in love with this place. 💦 The roar of the falls follows you everywhere, and the mist rises like a dream. ➡️There’s something unforgettable about enjoying lunch while watching one of the world’s most famous waterfalls right in front of you. 🍣At Grand View Restaurant, you can sit by the window, order fresh sushi, and listen to the sound of the falls in the background — it feels both peaceful and surreal. 🌊 The panoramic view makes every bite special — imagine sipping green tea while the mist rises outside and tourists stop in awe at the edge of the lookout. It’s one of those moments that make you slow down and just be there. After, do a quick stop at the duty-free — because who can resist a little shopping before crossing the border? 😄 Then spent hours strolling along the promenade, admiring how powerful and calm nature can be at the same time. No matter how many photos you’ve seen, seeing the falls in person is something else entirely — mesmerizing, alive, and unforgettable. 💡 Tips: Walk all the way to the Table Rock viewpoint for the best angle of the Horseshoe Falls. Grab a hot drink and just sit for a while — it’s pure peace. ☕️ #NiagaraFalls #GrandViewRestaurant #SushiWithAView #CanadaTravel #TripMoments #FallGetaway #TravelEats #canada #ontario

#2024 Travel Review Address: 8649 Appleby Line, Campbellville, ON Lavender is not only found in Provence, France, but also in North America, and throughout the summer you can visit up to 30 lavender-growing venues in Ontario. In pursuit of a fantastic and romantic adventure, perhaps you can add “The Purple Road” to your list of must-sees in your life. Before planning your trip, be sure to ask the farms about the blooms of lavender. Some require appointments for visits, most of which are open to the public. Among them, Kelso Lavendar, which costs about ten Canadian dollars for adults, is good. It is worth visiting because you can take a selfie in front of the fantastic venue of 15,000 lavender plants, the icon is the Tanaka wooden chair and piano. There are many different varieties, once you enter the garden fresh fragrance is incomparable, very relax. Be sure to eat lavender ice cream and buy dried lavender and other small gifts from the garden, no less than France.

Ontario, Canada is famous for its fall foliage, which usually begins blooming in the north in late September and spreads all the way to the south, where it reaches its peak in mid-October. The autumn leaves are mostly red and yellow, mixed with the grassland and lake views, which is quite beautiful. #CanadianAutumnLeaves Local Attractions - Ontario Fall Foliage Driving Tour

Eaton Mall Like most urban shopping malls outside the UK, this is a large shopping mall with many shops, and the design is exquisite. The master is responsible for polishing the roof structure of the center. It's actually in the center of Toronto. If the weather is wet or cold, it's a place worth spending a few hours shopping. Downstairs is packed with a variety of fast food and restaurants, and you can eat almost any kind of food from every country.

Toronto’s China Town is one of the biggest communities of its kind in North America. Toronto has the highest number of Chinese in all of Canada. So it’s not surprising that the city is actually home to 5 separate China Towns. The main one is located in the city center of Toronto. Spreading westwards along Dundas Street to Spadina, as far as Nathan Phillips Square. There are many excellent Chinese restaurants, shops and specialty stores in Toronto. There are also many street vendors and craftsmen selling their wares, especially at weekends. If you plan to visit the city and want to spend some time in this wonderful area filled with luxury restaurants, fun shops and markets, know that Toronto’s China Town area has many clean, comfortable and pretty hotels. Restaurants and shops practically spill out onto the streets, and most of the passersby are Chinese, so you’ll feel yourself at home here. The best thing about visiting this part of the city is the food. There are tons of restaurants in the area and very few of them offer North American style nouvelle cuisine; instead you can find authentic Chinese cuisine here. Szechuan, Hunan, Cantonese or even Northern style cuisine can be found. Of course, the food prices here are very reasonable. For those of you visiting Toronto but whose stomach yearns for home, you can allay your fears.

On the page of world geography, I ended up at Niagara Falls🌊 The falls are located on the border between Canada and the United States, spanning Ontario and New York. It is one of the three largest waterfalls in the world, and seeing it with the naked eye is very shocking and spectacular. There are boat tours available at the falls, with tickets priced at 38 CAD🎫, allowing you to get up close to the waterfall. On that day, I was dressed too lightly and it was too cold, so I didn’t take the boat ride. The mist was very heavy. After visiting the falls, you can conveniently visit the nearby town of Niagara On the Lake, where I also toured this super tiny little church⛪️, super cute ૮₍◜ෆ◝.₎ა

If you're traveling to Canada, Tim Hortons is a must-visit! The US has McDonald's, and the Philippines has Jollibee, but Canada has Tim Hortons! I tried the Ice Cap, a must-try at Tim Hortons. I was hoping for a taste of authentic Canadian cuisine, but Canadian prices were more reasonable than US prices, and it tasted like a coffee milkshake and melted ice cream! It was a great way to replenish my sugar levels during my trip. 📌 #TimHortons 📌 1561 Niagara Stone Rd, Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON L0S 1J0 Canada #OverseasTravel #CanadaTravel #CanadianRestaurants

Today, I ordered a takeaway of crayfish in Toronto, and the whole process was full of anticipation and surprise! This crayfish is seasoned with garlic and spicy, which makes my taste buds can't wait. 📦😋 When I opened the takeaway box, the bright red crayfish lay in the rich sauce, and the aroma instantly filled the whole room! Each crayfish exudes an attractive luster, making people want to feast on it immediately. 🍽️ The first bite I took, the tender meat blended with the taste of garlic, and instantly exploded in my mouth! The garlic aroma accompanied by the sweetness of the crayfish made me feel an irresistible deliciousness. 🥰 The spicy part is even more exciting, and the spicy sauce makes every bite full of layers. The spicy taste dances on the tip of the tongue, making people unable to stop, it's so addictive! 🌶️🔥 It is worth mentioning that the crispy cucumber and tofu at the bottom also absorb the essence of the fragrant sauce, and the fresh taste forms a perfect match with the crayfish. The crispy cucumber made the whole meal more balanced, and the tofu was so smooth that I couldn't help but eat it one bite after another. 🥒🍲 This takeaway crayfish not only satisfied my taste buds, but also allowed me to experience the fun of enjoying food at home. Every bite is a taste of happiness, which makes me fall in love with this classic Chinese crayfish even more! 🌟🥳 I believe that whether in a restaurant or at home, this crayfish can bring unlimited deliciousness and happiness.

🇨🇦 Ontario, Canada offers countless ways to experience its natural marvels: helicopters, whirlpool jet boats, cruises, road trips, hiking, scuba diving, freediving... From sky to water, the excitement is limitless! ⛲️【Algonquin Provincial Park】 🌟Ontario's oldest and most renowned park protects over 7,600 square kilometers of wilderness, home to more than 140 bird species, 50 mammals, and 30 non-venomous reptiles and amphibians. 🐒The park's seasonal activities cater to children of all ages, making it a year-round destination for nature lovers.

At the Haliburton Forest Wolf Centre, you can observe wild gray wolves up close! 💦【Niagara Falls: A World Natural Wonder】 🌟【Recommended Experiences】 🚁Highly recommend Niagara Helicopters for a breathtaking aerial view of the falls. This once-in-a-lifetime experience combines majestic scenery with thrilling adventure. From above, you'll see the river connecting Lake Ontario and Lake Erie, with water cascading from the higher lake into a deep, narrow valley—like bold brushstrokes in calligraphy. This river marks the actual border between the U.S. and Canada. Drones aren't allowed here, so helicopters are your only chance for aerial footage! ✈️For more adrenaline, try the Whirlpool Jet Boats—small vessels with three jet engines that plunge into raging whirlpools and power out with sheer force. You'll get soaked (wear a swimsuit!), feeling like a wall of water is crashing onto you—so intense it could even bend your GoPro mount. 🚢For a close-up encounter with the "Thunderous Waters," take a Niagara City Cruises boat to the base of the falls. On sunny days, rainbows are almost guaranteed—pure magic! 🏝️【Thousand Islands】 📌Located between Toronto and Ottawa, the "1000 Islands" region actually has 1,864 islands, mostly privately owned. It's a true haven for the wealthy, with vacation homes and castles dotting the landscape. 🚁The best way to explore is via 1000 Islands Helicopter Tours, offering unparalleled views of the St. Lawrence River and the islands' colorful castles—a perfect opportunity for unique photos. ⛵️On fair-weather days, a scenic cruise like the 1000 Islands Rockport Cruises is a great budget-friendly option, showcasing grand estates and panoramic river views. 🤿Bonus: This is the world’s second-largest freshwater diving destination! Despite its tropical appearance from above, it's entirely freshwater. Explore shipwrecks ranging from wooden sailing vessels to steamships. If diving isn't your style, Brockville’s Underwater Sculpture Park features dozens of submerged sculptures to discover.

Recently, I went to a seafood market to try the famous local oysters. There are different types of oysters in the market, each with its own unique flavor, which is really dazzling. First, I saw a booth full of fresh oysters, complete with some seaweed. The stall owner enthusiastically introduced each oyster, saying that they came from different places and tasted differently. I tried an oyster called "Shugoku", which was smooth and tender and full of seafood. Next, I tried the "Sunberry" oysters. This oyster is slightly sweeter than the "Shugoku" and has a light fruity aroma that adds more layers on the palate. The stall owner said that "Sunberry" is a local favorite and was not disappointed. I also saw a booth called “Phat Basterds,” which I couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Their oysters are particularly big and full of flesh. It's really addictive to take a bite. Served with some lemon juice, the flavor is more prominent. The atmosphere inside the market is also lively, with the smell of seafood all around and the laughter of other diners making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I find that both oysters and other seafood remain at their freshest. Finally, I tried an oyster called “Mamacita Mega Jumbo,” which was so super huge that you almost had to hold it with both hands. Very rich in flavor and surprisingly plump. After eating, there is no greasy feeling at all, but rather refreshing.
