Collectors and those who believe that antiques have a special charm and complement their interior perfectly should definitely get acquainted with such mysterious and inspiring places as the Toronto flea markets.
Kensington Market
It is a major flea market in Toronto, where you can shop for a wide variety of items - original shoes, vintage clothing and jewelry, huge brimmed hats, cute antique dishes, retro household items, many interesting books, collectibles dating back to 40-60 -th years at quite reasonable prices.
Everyone should definitely come here, regardless of whether they are “chasing” the “treasures” of antiquity or not, because the Kensington Market has something to admire - in addition to the goods on display, everyone will be able to see walls painted with bright graffiti in the spirit of the 60s 20 centuries, as well as houses that are buildings in the Victorian style.
It is worth noting that this flea market often becomes a gathering place for writers, poets, artists and street musicians. Those who are hungry should be advised to visit nearby restaurants and food stalls.
St Lawrence Market
Visitors to this flea market will be able to purchase crystal glassware, French caps from the 1920s, gold Omega watches, a variety of badges and coins, vintage jewelry and other original items. It is worth noting that in addition to the antique collapse, St Lawrence has a farmers' market that is open on Saturdays and offers cheese, meat, vegetables, and game. There are other food outlets here that can be visited on any day except Monday. Arriving early in the morning, you can meet the local chefs. One of them can be hired for an additional fee - he will accompany you during your shopping and give advice on choosing the best products.
Shopping in Toronto
Expensive shoppers can explore the luxury boutiques on Bloor Street. For shopaholics interested in private stalls and small shops, it makes sense to get to know Cumberland Street better. Do not ignore the large underground shopping complex The Path - it consists of 1200 stores, each of which sells cosmetics, clothing, footwear, and household goods.
From Toronto you can take cotton clothes, ceramics, wooden products (local craftsmen use juniper and cedar to make various figurines, masks and totems), “dream catchers”, maple syrup.
