St. Catharines at a Glance
St. Catharines, known throughout Ontario as the “Garden City”, is a lively community
located to the north of Niagara
Falls. Mirroring Toronto on
the shore of Lake Ontario, St. Catharine's draws much of its character from its
visual appeal: lush parkland, colourful floral gardens, historic Victorian buildings
and sparkling waters. Chock full of activities and brimming with personality,
this city attracts a wide gamut of people. The St.
Catharines Museum offers visitors a glimpse back in time and an opportunity
to further explore the Underground Railroad, the sport of lacrosse and other topics
of interest that were integral to the development of the region. Stroll down the
city's historic downtown, visit a winery, play at the waterfront, relax at a spa,
participate in a festival—but above all else, enjoy the friendly atmosphere and
small town air. This city's unmistakable energy calls visitors back time and time
again.
