Toronto - CN Tower

Toronto - CN Tower


In 1995, the CN Tower was classified as one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World by the American Society of Civil Engineers. The World s Tallest Building shares this designation with the Empire State Building, The Chunnel under the English Channel, the
Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Itaipu Dam on the Brazil/Paraguay border, the Panama Canal, and the North Sea Protection Works off the European coast.


Defining the Toronto skyline, the CN Tower is Canada s most recognizable and
celebrated icon. At a height of 553.33m (1,815 ft., 5 inches), it is the World s Tallest
Building, a Wonder of the Modern World, Canada s National Tower, an important
telecommunications hub, and the centre of tourism in Toronto. Each year, 2 million
people visit Canada s Wonder of the World to take in the breathtaking view and enjoy all
the CN Tower has to offer.
Test your nerve on the famous Glass Floor with a view 1,122 feet straight down to the
ground. Three observation levels provide breathtaking views of Toronto of up to 120 km
away include the SkyPod, the highest observation level of them all. Other attractions
include simulators rides, themed arcade, multimedia displays and exhibits, and shopping.
Three restaurants to satisfy every appetite include the award-winning 360 Restaurant
with its one- of-a-kind wine cellar in the sky.
