Kensington-Chinatown is a vibrant and culturally diverse area located in Toronto. Comprising two distinct neighborhoods, Kensington-Chinatown is bordered by Queen St W to the south, University to the east, College to the North and Bathurst to the west. It is a bustling and bustling area that is known for its vibrant street life, diverse population, and unique mix of cultures.

The Kensington neighbourhood is characterized by its large outdoor market, which reflects the area’s diverse cultural heritage. The vibrant, eclectic market is a cultural mix of vintage and secondhand stores, artisanal food vendors, independent grocers, curio shops and more. The market thrives in the summer with small local street vendors, artists and live music.

The Kensington Market dates back to the early 1900’s and was originally called The Jewish Market. When Jewish immigrants began to settle in the area, they built outdoor stalls in front of their homes to sell goods to neighbours due to exclusion from the business community. By the 1960’s, the market had long flourished and was home to an incredibly diverse range of newcomers who contributed to the market’s cultural expansion.
