最近聽同事說秋老虎發威,但對於我這種怕熱的人好像都很熱啊~ 所以當然是要找有冷氣吹的地方去!這地方除了圖書館之外,就是博物館啦!

多倫多 - 背包客的旅行 皇后西街Queen Street West
Toronto City Hall. 多倫多市政廳 |
Queen Street West
This time I got off at Queen Station and walked west. If you are tired, you could also take the streetcar. The streetcars here run frequently, so people don't need to wait for a long time, but the traffic is very busy during the rush hours, it will be very crowed because of it is near business park.
Queen Street is one of my favorite street. It's full of fashion. There are so many special stores, the prices are above the average, you could find many ornaments or something hippie. You could also find some second-handed stores, these clothes are very classical, if you want to buy some classical sweaters and you don't hate to wear something that is used, you could consider it. The clothes here is good, and the quality is not bad, the price is not high. If you are afraid of wearing something that you could easily find in . you could come here to look for some treasures.
皇后街是我很喜歡的一條街道。他是一條充滿流行前衛的街。在這條街上有許多有特色的小店,價位在中上,可以在這裡買到許多嬉皮的或者搖滾的服飾及配件。也可以在這裡找到一些二手衣服店,這些二手衣常常帶有復古風,想要買些復古風格的毛衣又不嫌是有人穿過的話可以考慮,基本上這些衣服都保存的良好,而且質感也不差,價位也不會太高。如果害怕撞衫的人也可以選擇來這條街上走走逛逛。
Get off the street car from Queen Station, you will see Eaton Center. It's the biggest shopping mall in downtown. In front of Eaton Centre, it's Bay. This is also a mall, but the products are more expensive than those in Eaton Centre. It opened the branch of Top Shop last year. There are so many high building here because it is a business park.
從Queen Station一下車是伊頓中心,這在之前介紹過,是在市中心最大的一家購物商場。伊頓中心對面是Bay,這也是一間百貨喔,不過不像伊頓走平民路線,去年這裡也開了Top Shop的分店。接著我們出了伊頓中心後往西邊走,這裡由於是商業中心,所以高樓林立,每棟建築物好像在比高一樣,但是這區塊是我最喜歡的,因為彷彿自己置身於紐約一樣。
Old City Hall
Then walking west, a high building is right beside you. The archaic color of the building and the old wall are very historical. It's Old City Hall. Located here with modern buildings makes this old structure more particular.
往西邊走後映入眼簾的是一個高聳的建築物,從他的顏色和古老的牆面可以感覺很有歷史,這是舊的市政廳。這樣一個看似古老的建築建立在滿是現代化大樓的中間似乎有點唐突,但也更凸顯他的特別呢。
舊市政廳在1984年後被歷史保護區。it was designated a National Historic Site of Canada. |
People go skiing in the middle of Nathan Phillips Square in Winter.
大家都會在冬天實來這裡溜冰。
|
City Hall
After then, you would see the New City Hall. This is the city hall which now operates. It structures with two buildings with streamline shapes, it's very special. People come to take a rest in Summer, and when it becomes colder, people here always come to enjoy skiing.
經過了這棟美麗的建築物後,跨過一個街道就是新的市政廳,這是目前在運作的建築,由兩棟建築物像流線般的佇立,非常特別,夏日有許多人坐在這附近休憩,而冬日呢廣場中間的水池會結凍成溜冰場,這裡的市民都會來這裡溜冰。
The Starbucks in front of the City Hall is cool as well, it's close to a TD Bank.
在市政廳對面的星巴克也非常得特別,他的隔壁是多倫多道明銀行,一家銀行一家咖啡店共有那片窗。
|
Osgoode Hall
Then, Osgoode Hall is in sight. Osgood is named in honor of their first Chief Justice of the Province, William Osgoode. And this hall was also designated a National Historic Site of Canada.
繼續往下走,映入眼簾的是Osgoode Hall。被命名為Osgoode是為了紀念他們這省的第一位法院院長,William Osgoode. Osgoode Hall也被列為歷史保護區。
Steve’s Music Store
If you are very interested in Music and instruments, you must come to Steve's Music Store. This is one of the stores which I always visited. I found so many piano notes here, you could also find various instruments here.
如果對於音樂很有興趣的人,當然一定要造訪一下Steve’s Music Store。在這裡可以找到許多樂譜,喜歡樂器的人也可以在這裡找到各式各樣的樂器。
Clafouti Pastisserie & Cafe
The Croissant is very tasty. You should come earlier and try them :)
如果再繼續沿著皇后西街走下去,可以找到一家這家Bakery,這家店的可頌相當可口,如果不早點排隊的話常常會銷售一空。

(Toronto)St. Clair Avenue 背包客在多倫多1
Outside of St. Clair West Station |
This time I took the yellow line and got off at St. Clair West Station, then walked east to St. Clair Station.
因為TTC的月票可以任乘客搭乘,沒有限制,所以我很喜歡搭上車後再隨意下車。因為多倫多的道路都是直線的,不像台灣的路曲折,所以其實不容易迷路。
這次的文章比較隨興,我搭乘黃線到St. Clair West地鐵站後沿著街道往東方走,前往St. Clair地鐵站.
Holy Rosary Parish Hall |
Near the subway station, a white church is over there. This is Holy Rosary Church, which is founded in 1892, the history is over hundred years, you could get it from the old wall. This church attracted me is Mary looking at the sky. It's the most beautiful and kindly Mary Statuary I have ever seen. I am always interested in the building of Church, so I had taken lots of pictures when I was in Toronto. If you want to make a visit this church, you could attend worship with people and enjoy the atmosphere of it on Sunday.
Mary Statuary |
下車之後在路旁的是一座白色的教堂。這是聖玫瑰教堂Holy Rosary Church。這座教堂建於1892年,已超過百年的歷史,從它的圍牆可以得知。這座教堂吸引我的地方是望向天際的聖母瑪莉亞,這是我看過最漂亮的瑪麗亞了。我一直對教堂的建築很有興趣,所以來多倫多就拍了好多教堂的照片。若是想參觀教堂可以在假日禮拜的時候入內,同時也感受一下特別的禮拜氣氛。
A beautifully decorated house by the roadside |
新增說明文字 |
There are many detached houses by the roadside. These houses look so wide and new.Due to the cold weather, I chose to go back to St. Clair Avenue. Though it was April, but it was so cold and my hands without gloves were almost freezing.
路上可以看見一幢幢的獨棟別墅,這裡的房子看起來很寬敞且屋齡很新,也可能是保養得很好。因為天氣十分寒冷,我還是走回St. Clair這條大馬路上。雖然已經四月,但是一直裸露在外的手指頭都已經快凍傷了。
Then, there's a larger church. It is Timothy Eaton Memorial Church. It is built in 1914, almost one hundred years ago. This Church is very stately, outside is a wide grass. There was a tree with pink flowers, but at that day it was very cloudy, so the color in the picture is not clear.
接著,又是另一個比前面更大的教堂。它是Timothy Eaton Memorial Church,建於1914年,相當於一百年前。這間教堂十分宏偉,教堂外有一大片綠地,還有一顆漂亮的樹,樹上的花是粉紅色的,不過這天是陰天,顏色不大照得出來。
My favorite Disney character, Peter Pan. |
Then, near the Avenue Road and St. Clair Avenue, there's a park named Glenn Gould Park over there. The most spacial thing is a Peter Pan Statue stands in the middle of the park. Near this Lovely statue, there is a playground slide for kids. If I didn't come here, I guessed I would have never known this sculpture. There are not many Peter Pan statues in the world, the most well-known one is in the UK, I was so surprised that one statue is in Toronto.
經過了之後,可以看到一座公園。這裡很特別的是,公園中間有個小飛俠彼得潘的雕像佇立在此,公園旁邊還有供孩子們玩的溜滑梯,若不是這一次旅程,我想我不會知道多倫多也有彼得潘的存在。 世界上有小飛俠雕像的地方不多,一個在英國,一個居然在多倫多,這讓我十分訝異。
Consulate General of the Republic of Korea韓國領事館 |
The brass plate |
After walking across the Avenue Road, the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea is over there. I was surprised that I saw it here because I didn't know it was located here. The sign on the wall says "Consulate General of the Republic of Korea". This building is very graceful, besides, you could see the their flag(Taegukgi) fluttering in the wind. Let's keep moving on, many old buildings are in sight.
過了大馬路之後往北走,居然經過了韓國大使館。可以看見門口標住著韓國領事館的招牌,這座建築物很典雅,此外,也可以看見韓國太極旗幟在風中飄揚。繼續往東邊走,又可以看見這特別的老房子。
An Old building |
There are many old English buildings on the road, you could see the pipe outside of the building, and the climbing vines creep along all of the wall. The buildings look so historical, and made me feel I was in an old small ancient town.
路上有許多看起來是英式的老建築物,水管外露,藤蔓在那片老舊的牆面攀爬,很有一種懷舊的感覺,彷彿自己置身在一個古老的小鎮。

(Toronto)Tim Hortons加拿大的平價咖啡
在零下十幾度的日子,若看見前方有間Tim Hortons,對我和朋友來說就像在沙漠看見綠洲一般。
If my friends and I saw a Tim Hortons in our sights on a cold day, it seemed like we found an oasis in a desert.
|
Coffee store is very special in my life, the smell from coffee stores always reminds me of the memory when I was in USA. Then I realized that I love coffee because I am addicted to the smell.
This time I am going to introduce a brand of coffee store chain that you can see almost everywhere in Canada.
This brand is Tim Hortons.
There are some main coffee stores chain in Toronto, such as Starbucks, Tim Hortons, Second Cup and Timothys etc. The average prices of Starbucks is similar to that in Taiwan, but the cups is cheaper than that in Taiwan when it's on sale.
Almost everyone knows Tim Hortons if you have been to Canada or live in Canada. It seems like 7-11 in Taiwan, though the options in Tim Hortons are not as many as those in convenience stores, but it quite satisfy us. There are Starbucks in Toronto as well, but it's not as popular as Tim Hortons. (Starbucks is very popular in Taiwan.)
有時候會舉辦的抽獎活動,記得別喝完就把杯子丟了。

Tim Hortons is like Mr. Donuts (A Japanese Donuts Chain), it sells Coffee and snakes, compare to the average price there, the food in Tim Hortons is not expensive at all so that foreign students could afford it. In 1964, It was founded in Hamilton by a hockey player, Tim Hortons. Now, Tim Hortons is the biggest fast food Chain in Canada.
(Thanks to Jennifer Tai's Pictures.)
Tim Hortons Franchises spread in Canada as rapidly as 7-11 in Taiwan, you could see it everywhere, such as Subway station or big malls. This shows how deeply Western people love Coffee. Besides, due to the cold weather, seats are usually offered for customers, so we poor students always ordered coffee or desserts, and stayed there for few hours.
There's a Tim Hortons below the second building of ILAC in Toronto Campus.(Yes, I was ILAC students.) It is always full of people in the morning and at lunch time, students and officers will come to line up for a drink. You can also order Muffins and Donuts, there are various flavors to choose and they are inexpensive.
You can order one cup of hot chocolate and see the snow outside of window in Winter, or you could enjoy ice capp in hot Summer time.
Tim Hortons also sells breakfast, sometimes if I didn't want to eat cereal for breakfast, I would come here to have a sandwich, then I felt more fresh at school.

People lined up for a drink or dessert. |
咖啡店對我來說有種莫名的親切感,猶記得小時候去美國的時候所記得的味道就是從咖啡店內飄出的濃濃咖啡香,後來我喜歡喝咖啡莫過於喜歡那深沉難以言喻的咖啡味道。

甜點及麵包部分的選擇有馬芬、甜甜圈、餅乾、果醬餡餅、優格等等。 There are Snacks and baked goods such as Muffins, Donuts, Cookies, Pastries, and Yogurts etc. |

這是長得很像Mr. Donuts的東西就稱為Timbits,但他沒有像這麼有嚼勁,也比較甜。
Timbits looks like the Donuts we can buy in Mr. Donuts, it's sweeter but not as chewy as that in Mr. Donuts..
