Markham, Technology center in York Region, Canada

Markham stretches across 30 kilometers northeast of Toronto, featuring modern corporate buildings alongside preserved heritage structures and residential neighborhoods.

The transformation from farmland to urban development began in 1794 when European settlers established agricultural communities in the York Region territory.

The Markham Fair brings together thousands of residents each year to celebrate agricultural traditions through exhibitions, competitions, and local food presentations.

The city connects to Toronto through multiple transit options, including GO trains, York Region Transit buses, and direct access to Highway 404.

Markham contains North America's largest indoor shopping center dedicated to East Asian products, services, and dining experiences at Pacific Mall.
