Nathan Phillips Square

Very spacious city square. It's also fun in the winters, with Christmas lights, the tree, the deco, and a bustling ice-skating rink. The drive to it in the busy downtown area is a disaster though, and you have to be very patient with the drive and finding parking nearby. Worth a visit at least once in your lifetime.

It's an amazing square with a different atmosphere, especially on holidays, and don't forget your roller skates. At night getting crowded. There is a huge flock of peaceful pigeons looking for food. I love them.

This is one of my favourite spots in Downtown Toronto. I love the Toronto sign. It is very unique where you can see the old and new hall from the square. It is so impressive. The square is always active with different type of activities specially during the weekends. It doesn't matter if is summer or winter, people always have fun at this place. Also, I enjoy the free ice skating. Recommended to bring your own ice skating shoes to avoid the line at the shoes rental.

Nathan Phillips Square, located in the heart of Toronto, is a vibrant public space and a hub for community events. Framed by the iconic Toronto City Hall, it features the famous TORONTO sign, a favorite for photos. The square hosts farmers' markets, concerts, and seasonal activities, including a popular skating rink in winter. Its reflecting pool and green spaces provide a peaceful contrast to the surrounding urban landscape. A cultural landmark, it embodies Toronto's diversity and energy. While it can get crowded during major events, its central location and dynamic atmosphere make it a must-visit spot for locals and tourists alike.

Really great place to be downtown. Just a small block away from TTC subway, Eaton center, Yonge Street and everything else.nnThe square entrance into where free for our skating rink in the winter time. It’s great atmosphere.nnIn the summertime, it’s a nice place to hang out and have a picnic or just meet up with friends also.
