Black Creek Pioneer Village (which is closed for the winter months) is fairly easy to find... But you are going to need a car! Look for it overlooking Black Creek, just west of York University and southeast of the Jane and Steeles intersection.
Black Creek Pioneer Village is a journey back in time to discover life in early Ontario. 19th-century Ontario to be exact. The Village is an example of a typical crossroads community found in the Toronto area during the 1800's.
Visitors are able to learn about history by walking through it and exploring on their own. There are 40 carefully restored heritage homes, shops and gardens. In fact each building is decorated in the style of the 1860s with period furnishings. Besides the Historical Interpreters and Craftspeople that can be found housed in the restored buildings, the site also features historical reenactments and visiting artisans.
