The Parkdale market is decent at times. There are very few vendors on a typical weekday however more options during the weekend. Sometimes some pop up local food vendors show up, as well as some longer distance out of town farmers. Fresh produce is usually available as are flowers. There is a fenced-in kids park and pool next to the market so this is ideal for family outings.

The Rideau Hall Grounds are especially well-kept and beautiful grounds at any time of the year. I personally enjoy coming here for picnics to enjoy the feeling of nature right in the city, to play frisbee or ball, and to go for some leisurely strolls on the grounds. A plus that you can brush up on your Canadian history here at the same time.

Yup, truly a useful bridge over the canal in downtown Ottawa. It serves a a main commute route for students, for people who work downtown and for folks just going out for a walk ,run or bike along the paths. The sight of the canal as well as the parliament in the distance are nice also.

One of the best places to dance in the city on a Saturday night! Easily my favorite dance club in the city. Besides a good layout of the floor for dancing, the staff is fast and friendly. They host a variety of DJs with different styles. Looking forward to , and hoping for, their reopening post-Covid.

Loved shopping at this library. What a selection of books of all types. I found many books I liked here. The decor and area were pleasing and calm. The cashier was helpful with recommendations and went above an beyond.
