Introduction

The CN Tower is a proud symbol of Toronto, built in 1976, and standing at 553.33 meters tall, it is one of the tallest buildings in the world. Originally built for television and radio broadcasting, it has now evolved into a primary observation tower and viewing platform. The Tower's unique design resembles a rocket shape, which makes it visible from almost anywhere in the city. The Tower's main structure is composed of the main deck and the SkyPod. The main deck has 7 levels, some of which are open to visitors, and can be reached by elevator from the ground in just 58 seconds. The main observation deck and glass floor provide stunning views of downtown Toronto and are truly breathtaking. The 360-degree rotating restaurant offers a variety of delicious dishes, paired with the astonishing city view, making the dining experience unforgettable. The CN Tower also offers EdgeWalk, an extreme edge-walking activity, allowing visitors to walk around the outer edge of the main deck in a complete circle, providing an ultimate thrilling experience. The SkyPod stands at a height of 447 meters and has a telescope that offers a clear view of the Niagara Falls on a sunny day. The CN Tower is not only a witness of industrial history, but also a landmark of Toronto, showcasing the city's magnificent scenery to visitors.
