Description:
DOWNTOWN. Built as a TV transmission antenna, this tower has come to be known as Toronto's symbol and is a huge draw for tourists. At 1815 feet, it's the tallest tower in Canada. Currently serving Canadian TV and FM radio stations, it's also the workplace of hundreds of people and a popular entertainment destination. Its range of attractions and exhibits includes a glass floor lookout, cafe, award-winning 360 Restaurant (with the world's highest wine cellar!), shops, and a simulator theatre, which mimics airflight. All these facilities can be reached via the famous glass-faced elevator, which takes less than a minute to reach the observation deck. |

In addition, there's lots of other fun stuff to see and do, including Misumu Bay Wet Play area, Jungle Playground, animal demonstrations and performances, a train tour and a lake cruise. Safari Bus tours of the animal reserves are available for an additional fee. There are two full-service restaurants, several snack carts, and two gift shops in the park. |
