Many thanks to MapArt for allowing us to use their maps


St. Catharines is the largest city in the Niagara Region. It is nicely located on Lake Ontario and because of its numerous parks it is also known as "Garden City". The city is part the so called wine country and you will find many wineries in its surroundings.
Despite the closeness of well known tourist cities like Niagara Falls and Niagara-on-the-Lake many visitors can be seen in this town. For shoppers the malls are an attraction, for others fine dining and "Old Port Dalhousie".
The best know shopping mall in St. Catharines is without doubt the "Pen Center". A born shopper can easily spend a whole rainy day there. Brand name stores, restaurants and movie theatres can keep him easily busy.

You can walk for hours in the "Pen Centre"

Downtown St. Catharines is improving steadily. We like to visit some of the Asian restaurants. Surprisingly, we always found a parking spot very close to our dining places.
We hope that the "Downtown Association" remains successful with its important mission to improve and beautify this area and hopefully the business is also rewarded. It is essential to create a nice and clean environment in a city and give visitors the feeling of being welcome there.

In Europe the downtown area is normally reserved for pedestrians and naturally for supply vehicles. You find that many restaurants have tables outside and it is much more relaxing to browse through all the stores without any traffic noise and exhaust gases.
Parking is usually provided adjacent to the pedestrian zones. Very often free for two hours when you display a special parking disc on your dashboard.
I was told by officials who never have experienced this, that Canadians do not want to walk. I saw them and Americans walking in Europe!

St. Catharines has also an university, the "Brock University". I met some foreign students there. If you are interested just visit the university to get an impression and information if needed.
If you are interests in art you can see twelve outdoor sculptures from Lutz Teutloff on the area of the "Brock University".

Please drive also to "Old Port Dalhousie". It is still a pleasure to go there. There are plans to "develop" it.
You find an harbor and many inviting restaurants, stores and a relaxing atmosphere.
We went with some of our visitors for a lobster dinner to a well known place there. Everybody liked that. I had a steak and was happy too.
Close to Port Dalhousie you can visit the annual "Royal Canadian Henley Regatta".

Many boats

Port Dalhousie is always busy
