Toronto Hockey Hall of Fame
Being in Toronto and not visiting the Hockey Hall of Fame is unforgivable for true fans of the game. Because Canada is the cradle of ice hockey, and the NHL is the strongest league in this sport. The museum contains exhibits testifying to the glory of the legendary teams and players of the continents.
Casa Loma Castle
The castle with the Spanish name Casa Loma, unexpected for Canada, meaning “house on a hill” really stands on one of the hills of Toronto. This intricate palace, combining different architectural styles, looks very colorful, as if it was transferred to the New World directly from medieval Europe.
Toronto Zoo
The Toronto Zoo is one of the three largest zoos in the world. It is open in the Red Valley and covers an area of 300 hectares. It is not easy to walk the entire zoo from and to — the total length of the paths is 10 kilometers.
Royal Ontario Botanic Gardens
The Royal Botanic Gardens are located at the western tip of Lake Ontario, Canada, between the towns of Hamilton and Burlington. Together, they cover an area of more than 1,100 hectares and are part of the World Biosphere Reserve.
Royal Ontario Museum
The Royal Ontario Museum is Canada’s most significant ethnographic and historical exhibition complex, which is also one of the five largest museums on the North American continent. More than a million visitors flock here every year.
Distillery District
Distillery is a historic district of Toronto during the heyday of the alcohol industry in North America. It is named after a large distillery of the 19th century, which occupies a fair part of the territory.
Rogers Center
Rock stars, artists, religious figures and, of course, athletes — who did not give vivid emotions to 50 thousand spectators in the heart of downtown Toronto. One of Canada’s largest stadiums, the Rogers Center, is located here.
CN Tower
From the shore of Lake Ontario, as well as from many points in Toronto, there is a beautiful view of the CN Tower, another record and symbol of the city. It is the tallest free—standing building in the Western Hemisphere, one of the tallest towers in the world, and also one of the 7 engineering wonders of the world today.
Fort George
On the way from Toronto to Niagara Falls, it is worth visiting the Fort George National Historical Museum. This is a military outpost of Canada near the borders with its southern neighbor, the United States, which in the early 19th century defended its then capital, Niagara—on—the-Lake.
Toronto-Dominion
The Toronto Dominion or, as it is called in Toronto, “T.D.” are majestic skyscrapers in the financial quarter of the city. The buildings, designed by the great Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, have been around for more than half a century, but the stylish black towers look very appropriate today.
