Markham, some half an hour’s drive away from Downtown Toronto, is a pleasing mishmash of cultures, attractions and tourist landmarks. While you can cycle through the scenic leafy passageways and soak up the fresh air and sunshine, you can even consider visiting the famous Unionville area to check out amazing eateries, charming boutique stores and stunning buildings. Markham Village, home to several historic buildings, is another top area that you can explore on foot. Alternatively, the open-air Markham Museum, the sprawling Toogood Park and the brilliant Frederick Horsman Varley Art Gallery are other attractions worth adding to your itinerary. To experience this stunning Canadian city to the fullest, check out this list of the top short-term rentals in Markham, Canada.
