Neighbourhoods

Downtown Kitchener is currently going through a revitalization. Conveniently located next to Victoria Park and just steps from your AirBnb. It's very vibrant and there's so much to do here - I love to go to Downtown Kitchener to try new foods from the multicultural food scene. There is a weekly farmers market on Saturday called the Kitchener Farmer Market!

This beautiful park has been consistently voted as one of the most beautiful in Ontario for years and it is literally located 1 minute from your AirBnb! It is also the oldest park in Kitchener. The Park was named after Queen Victoria ahead of her diamond jubilee on the British throne. The human-made lake is fed by Schneider Creek, surrounds three small islands, and is crossed by multiple bridges. The park also contains the Victoria Park pavilion, the Victoria Park Gallery and Archives, a bandstand, and a historic boathouse, a pub and music venue.
