Frommer's Toronto Day by Day

Toronto bears many titles-one of the globe's most culturally diverse cities, the heartbeat of the country's business community, and the first stop on the itinerary of the majority of travelers to Canada. The city has transformed itself in recent years into one of North America's largest metropolises, brimming with a breadth of nightlife, dining, theatre and entertainment that rivals any on the continent. A wave of investment has led to the unveiling of a new generation of cultural institutions and high-end hotels that are pushing the city to the forefront of the global tourism destinations.
