Little Italy (map) is the spot to get a sense of the Western Mediterranean. Sit at one of the many coffee shops and watch the world go by on the weekends.

Toronto’s Chinatown (map) is a great way to sample a tiny bit of cities like Hong Kong, without spending the airfare. Vast crowds crush the sidewalks as vendors sell authentic Chinese and Vietnamese food, and not-so-authentic knock-offs. It is one of North America’s largest Chinatowns, and with many shops aimed at tourists, it is a good place to pick up some unusual and inexpensive souvenirs.

Koreatown (map) has many Korean retail businesses and restaurants where Korean is as prominent as English in the signage.

Gerrard India Bazaar (Little India. map) If you want to get a sense of Toronto’s vibrant South Asian community, this is where you want to be; not only is Indian culture represented – visible Pakistani and Afghan communities are also alive along the street.
