Hamilton is a historic port city in the Niagara Peninsula region of Ontario. It is wrapped around the western edges of Lake Ontario midway between Toronto and the US border. In the past, this growing city was quite industrial, known then as ‘Steeltown’. Today, Hamilton still has its industrialised area, though it also has a thriving art community, historic sites and a lovey waterfront. Hamilton is not on many tourists lists of places to go, but there are numerous things to see and do in the city. Everything from shopping to outdoor recreation can be enjoyed, and it even has a lively nightlife scene.
