Traveler reviews
Norm P.
★★★★★2 years agoWe walked through this are to/from our Hotel. It is a terrific, pedestrian only street. It has plenty of terrific shops and restaurants - with beautiful heritage buildings everywhere. It does get pretty crowded throughout the day, but that only adds to the charm of the area.
