The city's premiere shopping and dining district, Yorkville is one of the city's few areas open for business on statutory holidays. A unique mixture of historic charm and modern seduction, Yorkville is home to an unbelievable 700 galleries.

The Village of Yorkville was incorporated in 1853; up until then, it was non other than a quiet rural village just outside Toronto's city limits. In the sixties, it was populated by Bohemians and hippies. This neighbourhood features attractive courtyards and alleyways, and a central contemporary park. The Toronto International Film Festival descends on the area each year, infiltrating many of the cinemas in the area.
