Touring Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Toronto is probably one of the most eclectic and best places to visit. I have heard people refer to Toronto as Canada's New York City but only cleaner. Being the largest city in Canada, Toronto has much to offer an avid tourist.

Even if you are afraid of heights like I am do not pass up the opportunity of visiting the CN Tower. This 1,815 foot structure is the world's tallest building. It has amazing views and an amazing piece of glass floor. Although I honestly almost passed out when I saw this glass floor that gives you a view of the ground below. There is also an outside observation deck and a revolving restaurant. Admission prices range from $14.99 to $32.99 depending on the tour package you purchase.
