Introduction

Located next to Toronto's financial center, the St. Lawrence Market is a must-visit tourist destination. In 2011, it was named the world's best food market by National Geographic. Here, you'll find a wide variety of fresh produce, local specialty snacks, and souvenirs. The market is divided into two parts, with over 120 specialty merchants selling diverse food and non-food products in the southern part along Front Street. Its popular restaurants are often crowded with visitors. The upstairs of the market is a gallery showcasing Toronto's cultural arts. The north part of the market is known for its weekly farmers' market on Saturdays, which has been held since 1803, and is the primary sales market for Southern Ontario's agricultural products. On Sundays, over 80 antique dealers set up stalls in the north market and surrounding squares, displaying their wares. The antique market lasts all day and admission is free.
