Burlington's Aldershot neighborhood has a host of places to visit such as Royal Botanical Gardens and Lake Ontario.
Waterfront trails along Lake Ontario offer front-row seats to sailing spectacles and bird migrations that would make an ornithologist weep with joy. The Joseph Brant Museum chronicles local history in ways that actually keep you awake, while the Burlington Performing Arts Centre hosts shows worth skipping dinner for. Royal Botanical Gardens provides a horticultural wonderland where even people who kill houseplants find inspiration. During summer, the Sound of Music Festival transforms the lakefront into a concert venue where Canadian bands prove they're more than just polite exports. At Canada's Largest Ribfest, sauce-stained shirts become badges of honor. LaSalle Park delivers sunset views that explain why photographers camp out for hours, tripods at the ready.
