Take a walk down one or all of these beauties for a hand-held night to remember.
The Waterfront
Address: Queen's Quay, Toronto, ON
Why You Need To Go: It can be easy to forget Toronto's a lakeshore city, but when the snow starts to fall, the views of the islands and the lake when it freezes are pure romance.
Kensington Market
Address: Between College and Dundas, Spadina and Bathurst, Toronto ON
Why You Need To Go: We keep thinking it's going to get gentrified but though there's fancy fish shops instead of stinky ones, and Casa Açoreana is gone (RIP), Kensington's still got it; even more so when it's snowed.
Little Italy's College Street
Address: College Street W, Toronto, ON
Why You Need To Go: Little Italy's College Street always has warm vibes, fantastic bars, and a glowing winter light display every year.
Guild Park and Gardens
Address: 201 Guildwood Pkwy.

Front Street
Address: Front & Church, Toronto, ON
Why You Need To Go: With a view of the famous flatiron building, plus charming old-style architecture, there is something magical about this Toronto street.
