Kensington Market is an amazing, creative and historical Toronto neighborhood. Originally a Jewish "ghetto", it draws the 70s hippy in all of us, with good restaurants, trendy shops and many artists. From vintage clothes to Chilean empanadas, Kensington Market is a great place for all.

Kensington Market is a golden hippie cool wonderful ecstatic neighbourhood in the City full of unusual things of culture and counterculture that is unique in the. Used to be some of the lowest cost housing in the city and immigrants from around the world would come to it to live and work and grow... It was so famous even when I was growing up in the 70s that they made a CBC show about it called the king of Kensington ... There are still shops by the park in the middle of the market where you can buy food from around the world and vintage clothing. It's eclectic and fun. There are bars and restaurants and a hostel and art shops and furniture. There are houses and condos and people live the heck out of it. If you're familiar with New York, I compare it to the east village... But it is uniquely Canadian. Kensington is Kensington come see it and spend the weekend exploring.

This bohemian neighborhood offers diverse food, vintage shops, and unique boutiques. It's a great place to explore street art, listen to live music, and find unique gifts. The area is also known for its vibrant festivals and events. The food options here represent Toronto's multiculturalism at its best.

Colorful district with street style food, from Turkish to Caribbean food. Designs and style of shops are inspiring. It was nice to have something in there to support small and local business.
