The Bata Shoe Museum is one of Toronto's most distinctive museums, devoted to the history and culture of footwear across centuries and around the world. Its collection is the largest of its kind, spanning everything from ancient Egyptian sandals to celebrity shoes, and the building itself on Bloor Street West is a landmark of contemporary architecture. Visitors come for temporary exhibitions as much as the permanent displays, and a museum shop and programme of talks round out a visit. Where it sits matters as much as what is inside. The museum is in the heart of Toronto, steps from the Bloor Street corridor and the edge of Yorkville, the upscale neighbourhood known for shopping, galleries and dining. That makes it easy to fold into a day that also takes in the Royal Ontario Museum nearby, the shops of Bloor Street and the restaurants of Yorkville, with downtown and its entertainment district a short ride south. With 7 hotels within 500 m and 57 within 1 km, it is one of the best-served landmarks in the city for overnight stays.
