Things to See and Do in Toronto (2)

The CN Tower 
Most will agree that if you only do one thing in Toronto, you must visit the CN Tower. This iconic structure, built the 1970s, looks like a giant doctor's needle and is the highest freestanding building in the world. Glass elevators wait to take you 553 meters to the top where you are rewarded with terrific views!

St. Lawrence Market 
Sights and smells delight your senses as you stroll through Toronto's famous St. Lawrence Market. In 1803, at the market's outset, farmers brought in fresh vegetables on Saturdays, but today the popular landmark permanently houses over 120 vendors. In 2012, National geographic named St. Lawrence Market the world's best food market.

Casa Loma 
Casa Loma, Toronto's only castle is also one of the city's greatest historical monuments. In 1911, 300 men began construction on the mansion and finished it three years later at a cost of over US$3 million. Walking into the magnificent home is like stepping back into an era of European splendor. The 98-room castle has towers, tunnels, secret passages, balconies, and a five-acre garden, all fit for a king or queen.
