As a Toronto resident for over 18 years, I just have to say don&#x27;t visit Toronto in the dead of winter. It&#x27;s drab, cold and uninteresting.<p>There are lots of festivals and things do in the summer, but I can&#x27;t honestly agree with the #7 spot. Many of the places on the list are more exciting.<p>Another tip: wherever you go, try to time your trip with a local holiday. This is when most public events will take place and locals will have the day off allowing you to interact with them as opposed to other tourists.
