For 100 km on either side of Toronto is a chain of towns on the edge of Lake Ontario that comprises the most populous area of Canada. The most popular of these towns for visitors is Niagara, with its beautiful and impressive Niagara Falls. The falls are called the honeymoon capital of the world. There is nothing quite like the 300 meter wide waterfall. It simply has to be seen to be comprehended. Many of the other towns in this area such as Stratford, home to an enormous Shakespeare Festival in the summer, are worth a visit.
Northern Ontario stretches from the north shores of Lake Huron and superior to the architect for Hudson Bay. Visitors may enjoy a supply train journey known as the Polar Bear Express. The train runs from late June to early September, and goes as far north as anyone can easily go in Ontario. It's a beautiful 300 km trip across the tundra. The train occasionally stops to pick up trappers, fishers, hunters, and local residents. It's still fur-trapping country up here, so don't be surprised if you end up sitting next to a pile of pelts.
