Since both my parents went to U of T I am always being dragged on campus every trip, but I don't mind. It's beautiful, but a touch cold in December. Did you know they shot Hulk there? Take a look and you will recognize a lot!
University of Toronto is a place where you could seat and think, relax and enjoy, old architecture and beautiful nature help you to switch your attention from busy city in the middle of Toronto.
The former King's College, founded almost two hundred years ago is so vast in terms of both the number of its many a building, various by their history, present, their distinguished alumni, the architectural styles and designs, and its sheer scale (if our memory serves us, the number of the staff and the student body reaches or even exceeds the mark of 100,000 people). As a quick stop on your layover-styled tour of Toronto its vast grounds could be admired by parking your car by the Convocation Hall followed by a quick stroll along King's College Circle. As a more dedicated visit, you may very well need several days to explore its riches including Annesley Hall, Birge-Carnegie Library, Bloor Street West-371, Brennan Hall, Nona Macdonald Visitors Centre Luella Massey Studio Theatre, Burwash Hall, and Burwash Residence, to name just a few out of a vast number of locations and sites undoubtedly worth your while.
Shouldn't be missed in the same way as the CN Tower, St.Lawrence Market, Casa Loma, the Distillery, Kensington Market and other iconic landmarks of the city.
You do not have to be U of T student to enjoy the spectacular view around King's circle. Great place to chill out during summer days with a huge yard.
University of Toronto is one of the top-notched universities in Canada whose history can be going back many years. It's downtown campus retains the ancient building development and are all easily accessible via Toronto public transit. Campus gives a strong sense of nostalgia for the alumni who return visiting
