Things to do in Toronto
Royal Ontario Museum
The Royal Ontario Museum is one of Canada's finest museums and it is highly regarded globally. It is home to an incredible art collection, it regularly features huge exhibitions from all over the world. The museum recently expanded and a new modern wing was built consisting of glass and very sharp angles. This was a controversial decision as the rest of the building is very traditional but it is definitely worth a visit.
CN Tower
This is without a doubt the best place to start your visit in Toronto, it is the city's most famous landmark. The CN Tower is 553 meters high, it can be seen from almost any point in Toronto and it was once the tallest freestanding structure in the world. We would recommend visiting one of the viewing areas at the top of the CN tower.
