a nice getaway

If in Toronto, is Niagra Falls a must do or are there enough other things of interest in the city?


Niagara Falls on the Canadian side is worth seeing, but there’s also lots of things to do in Toronto. I have posted before about Toronto if you can search.


Everyone always says 'Canada side is better' but I didn't think so


The view of the falls from the Canadian side is definitely more spectacular.
But the walking trails on the American side are better, the Canadian is very touristy.

Hudson Valley, Maine or Berkshires.

With that short amount of time, I think it’s an appropriate question to ask. Why is leaving the country a criteria?


Who wouldn't want to leave this shithole at every opportunity they're granted?


Sorry to be cliche, but honestly, if that's how you feel, you should leave, permanently.


I would love to.


I know it’s off topic for this thread, but I’d be curious to know where you’d prefer to live.

For three days it’s great. About 1 hour or a bit over flying time (flights are always listed as taking longer). Some great museums—ROM is really worth it, Bata Shoe Museum is fun, I hear good things about Little Canada but haven’t been. Some funky neighborhoods (Queen Street West, Kensington Market) and great food. You might be able to catch a baseball game if that’s of interest. I agree it’s not a top tourist destination and I do think Montreal is more interesting but Toronto could be lots of fun and easy for a long weekend.

thanks!
