    A free, ever-changing three-block run of street-art murals along Rush Lane, just south of Queen West between Spadina and Portland. A genuinely cool, photogenic 20-30 minute walk and one of the city's most authentic free things to do. Come in daylight; the art constantly changes.

    A pedestrian-only cluster of restored Victorian industrial buildings, now cobblestone lanes of galleries, boutiques, cafes and restaurants. Free to wander and genuinely atmospheric, if a touch curated and touristy. Lovely for a stroll and a coffee; it peaks with the winter Christmas Market.
