| Kensington
Market is one of Toronto's most vibrant and distinctive
multicultural neighbourhoods. The original
market dates back to British settlement in the 1790s,
after which it experienced waves of immigration from many
different
countries.
Dozens
of tiny shops and produce stands are hidden in Kensington's
labyrinthine street, and some of the best local produce
and meat shops
can be found there. Kensington
Avenue itself houses several tiny cafes and the best vintage
clothing
stores in the city.
The
market is best travelled on foot or bicycle, as the narrow
one-way streets and numerous dead-ends are difficult to
navigate by car.
