Gates On Bloor St W

 

When walking along Bloor St W by the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM)  you will come upon these gates which lead to a lovely pathway through part of the U of T campus. Most people don't notice the entrance and pass by but it it is a tranquil path which I will show you for the next few days. It is called Philosophers Walk.

I walked down Philosopher's Walk several times. Doesn't it mark the buried route of Taddle Creek?

It's a great campus!

Philosophers Walk is a gently hidden passage where the city softens, inviting anyone who notices to wander a little more thoughtfully.

You could do some deep thinking in there.

This sounds like a nice spot.

I am fairly sure I photographed those gates as we walked past. They are impressive.

A fine set of pillars holding the gates from an earlier century. They are imposing and impressive.
