About location

Vaughan is best known within Ontario for Canada's Wonderland, the major theme park that has operated here since 1981. This York Region city lies immediately north of Toronto, where suburban neighbourhoods, employment districts and older rural landscapes meet. The junction of Islington Avenue and Langstaff Road belongs to Vaughan's western road network, with broad carriageways and substantial tree cover reflecting the area's position in the Humber River watershed. Vaughan Metropolitan Centre, around the subway terminus at Highway 7 and Jane Street, is the municipality's high-density downtown project. The McMichael Canadian Art Collection in nearby Kleinburg focuses on Canadian art, including the work of the Group of Seven.

City Vaughan

Vaughan has served as a suburban municipality in Ontario’s York Region since 1991, when it was incorporated as a city. On Toronto’s northern edge, it extends from rapidly built-up districts around the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre to the Humber River valley and the older community of Kleinburg. Canada’s Wonderland, one of Canada’s major amusement parks, occupies part of the city, while the McMichael Canadian Art Collection in Kleinburg is closely associated with the Group of Seven and Canadian art. This contrast between high-rise development, large-scale entertainment and ravine country distinguishes Vaughan from downtown Toronto.

Region Ontario

Built around the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence water system, Ontario grew into Canada’s most populous province. Its vast northern interior lies on the Canadian Shield, a terrain of exposed rock, boreal forest and innumerable lakes, while the south concentrates most cities and farms along the Great Lakes. Lake Superior, Lake Huron, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario give the province an exceptional freshwater horizon; Niagara Falls is its best-known natural landmark. Toronto, Ontario’s largest city, is a major cultural and economic centre, while Algonquin Provincial Park, founded in 1893, represents a long tradition of protected wilderness.

Country Canada

Canada has served as a frontier between French and British colonial powers since the 17th century. The world’s second-largest country extends from Atlantic shores to the Pacific and Arctic coasts, with the Canadian Shield, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River shaping its vast geography. First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples are central to Canada’s identity, while Ottawa’s Parliament Hill represents its federal political life. French remains the official language of Quebec, adding a distinct dimension to the country’s public culture. See how Canada connects across North America by browsing webcams in neighbouring regions.
