NIAGARA FALLS:

 

Niagara's fascinating history and rich, cultural heritage is the foundation for many interesting discoveries today. Niagara's historical past will keep a history buff captivated. The War of 1812 was a turning point in Niagara's history, when the fledgling United States army fought British Loyalists for the new lands that would become Canada. Niagara's historic sites, battlefields, museums and military re-creations are a memorable journey into the past.

 

CN TOWER:

 

The Canadian National tower, better known as the CN tower, is the highest free-standing structure in the world.  It is one of the best-known Toronto attractions, as a standout on the Toronto city skyline.   As soon as you get a first glace of the city, the slim shape of the Toronto CN tower will catch your eye.   Located at the southern end of the city, near the lake, the CN tower Toronto measures 533 meters high (after the antenna was added in 1975).  Though the tower primarily functions for radio and television signals, it also has attractive features for visitors.  At the top of the tower are a revolving CN tower restaurant and lookout platforms.

CENTRE ISLAND

The Toronto Islands Ferry has pulled away from the dock at Centre Island in Ontario, Canada, one of its daily stops while transporting passengers.

Pulling away from the dock at Centre Island in the City of Toronto, Ontario in Canada, the Toronto Islands Ferry continues on its daily route. The ferry transports passengers between a small chain of islands in the city which are located a short distance offshore from the downtown core.

Centre Island is the largest of the islands, originally beginning as a sand spit which extended 9 kilometers into Lake Ontario. Each of the islands has its own characteristics and recreational attractions for visitors and is still a community of 262 cottages. The ferry travels on different routes across Lake Ontario, one of the only forms of travel besides water taxis, to the Toronto Islands.
