About

This blog is by an Estonian discovering her childhood dream country Canada. Based in Toronto, but sometimes traveling. Looking for an Estonian connection in the far away country and giving away tips about what to see, what to do, what to experience. Hence the name of the blog: Toronto. Canada. Estonia.

Distillery District






There is a nice and artsy area in Toronto's south-east side called Distillery. It used to be as the name refers mostly distillery for beers and spirits. Some of that still take place there, but mostly it is all about art, galleries, restaurants, workshops etc. So a great place to have fun at. They already have Christmas tree out and it is nicely decorated. Oh, on the first photo you can see an interesting monument, but since it was too interesting I shot only a fragment to expose ;)

More will come in the future, as I expect going back there :)

The Distillery District is a historic and entertainment precinct located east of Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It contains numerous cafés, restaurants, and shops housed within heritage buildings of the former Gooderham and Worts Distillery. The 53,000 m2 district comprises more than 40 heritage buildings and 10 streets, and is the largest collection of Victorian-era industrial architecture in North America. The district was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1988.
