High Park: Zoo, Jamie Bell Adventure Park & more

http://www.highparktoronto.com/zoo.php

Less people know about this downtown zoo in High Park so it's just between us. Entry is totally free and you can get up close with animals like the capybaras or peacocks (whom have celebrity status after they escaped the zoo years back). While you're there explore around High Park and you'll find swans and other wildlife and numerous picnic and relaxation areas. High Park is accessible through public transportation with it's own TTC station and there is also free parking. 

There are numerous other things to do in the park from a the Jamie Bell Adventure Park (whimsical children's playground castle)  to ice skating, biking and more activities (bike rentals are available throughout Toronto).


 



Casa Loma

https://casaloma.ca/

One of the most popular tourist attractions in Toronto is just a short walk away from Forest Hill Jewish Centre! Casa Loma (Spanish for "Hill House") is a Gothic Revival style mansion and garden turned into a historical museum. There is more than meets the eye to the castle, with secret rooms and an "escape room" attraction.
