You can enter through two gates. This is the Princes' gates opened in the 1930s by the royal princes of the time.
Situated in downtown Toronto on the lakeshore, the Ex or the Canadian National Exhibition is over 100 years old.
The noise and smells of the midway bring back so many childhood and adult memories.
Lots of games and chances to win a prize.
Lots of fun rides in the midway. Or take the younger children to the kiddieland area with rides and fun houses to walk through and try not to be scared.
Food is everywhere-from one end of the Ex to the other. However, at least one trip during the day must be to the Food Building with its many booths and variety of goodies. Meals, french fries, fudge and those famous Ex Tiny Tom donuts!
After visiting the many buildings such as the Direct Energy Centre, the Allstream Centre, the Better Living Centre and the Arts, Crafts and Hobbies building, a quiet pause by the Fountain near the Bandshell is a must. How many family pictures exist with a group shot by this famous fountain? I know we took some on our visit! The Ex is just one of those must see and visit Canadian icons! So Let's go to the Ex!!
The EX is also a great place for people-watching!
