Churches and Cathedrals in Whitby

"St. Patrick’s Church began as a mission from St. Michael’s, but it was given its own parish boundaries in 1861. The church was built in 1867 and was also designed by architect Arthur W. Holmes in the Romanesque Revival style. It is located in Toronto’s Chinatown and is known as the city’s fifth oldest Roman Catholic parish."

"St. Patrick’s Catholic Church started as a mission of St. Michael’s, but in 1861 it was granted its own parish boundaries. Since preaching a mission at St. Michael’s in 1880, the Redemptorists were asked to take over St. Patrick’s. This was done in 1881."

"Located in the heart of the Annex neighbourhood, the Trinity-St. Paul’s United Church became one after the two congregations, St. Paul’s Avenue Road United Church and Trinity United Church, joined together in 1887-89 to serve the community. The building was erected in 1889 and has since undergone several renovations, which have improved accessibility and acoustic sound."

"The Dundas west location of Café Plenty is a neat little spot in the middle of a super busy area; It’s smack across the street from Toronto Police 52 Division, on the cusp of Hospital Row and heading towards China Town west. This small yet roomy chic café is good for a croissant and latte pick-up, but if you’re hankering for more grab a sandwich and salad as well."

"Animal Liberation Kitchen is a little vegan restaurant with a few seats that operates mostly for takeout. They have tons of delicious plant-based meals, including the kimchi mac n cheese (pictured above and highly recommend!), BBQ pulled jackfruit burger, spiced chickpea mashed avocado sandwich, and a poke bowl. They’ve also got croissants: plain, almond, hazelnut chocolate, and croissant sandwiches with Just Egg."

"For coffee, tea, and sweet lovers, Brazil Bakery and Pastry is the perfect place and they have a variety of delicious sweets, deserts, sandwiches, coffee, tea, and main dishes for your afternoon tea and dinner. Their pastel de nata (Portuguese custard tart) is the best one I have ever had, and it costs next to nothing. They also make everything from scratch and the service is fast and friendly, not to mention it is extremely affordable."

"When you walk in, you’ll be immediately greeted by tall wire racks of freshly baked loaves and buns but delve a little further and you’ll discover their tantalizing baked goods. One of the must-tries is the pastel de nata (Portuguese custard tart), which locals swear by with their flaky shell and balanced custard that isn’t overwhelmingly sweet."

"Perched high on the Manulife Centre in Yorkville, the restaurant offers a fantastic vantage point in the city. You can choose to sit in one of the two patios – the one facing North Toronto or the other overlooking the CN Tower and downtown Toronto. No matter which one you choose, you are guaranteed the best rooftop view in the city. Pair the view with a few small plates like sweet Thai chili chicken drummies and Baja Halibut tacos, life can’t get much better!"

"The development of St. Michael’s Cathedral was thanks to Father Michael Power, who saw the need for a new building to serve a rapidly growing Catholic congregation. Toronto architect William Thomas designed St. Michael’s and John Harper led the project, which began in 1845. Bishop Power dedicated this English Gothic Revival style cathedral to St. Michael, but passed away before construction was finished."

"On Church Street in the Garden District of Toronto stands St. Michael’s Cathedral. Clad in tones of grey and brick, this cathedral stands solitary with its exceptional majestic appeal and timeless architectural pride. And why not, St. Michael's is the oldest temple in Toronto, dating back to the mid-19th century."

"» St. Michael’s Cathedral was built in the middle of the 19th century. The English New Gothic building was presented by architect William Thomas in 1865. Irish immigrants provided financial assistance."

"On the east side of Toronto along Lake Ontario is a nine-mile stretch of cliffs known as the Scarborough Bluffs, home to a series of 11 different parks. The area’s natural beauty is the main draw, with scenic views from the top of the bluffs over the lake. Hiking is the No. 1 activity; you can choose to hike the 300-foot cliffs on foot or simply drive up."

"The stunning Scarborough Bluffs on Lake Ontario are a geological wonder. This escarpment stretches along the eastern portion of Toronto’s waterfront and serves as a relaxing retreat for the city residents. The Bluffer’s Park beach nestled at the foot of the bluffs is considered the most beautiful beach in Toronto."

"Take a bus towards Cliffside and hike through Scarborough Bluffs Park. The park northeast of central Toronto is famous for its crystal clear waters and bright white cliffs overlooking it!"
