CN Tower
An essential part of Toronto's silhouette, the CN Tower is Canada's most recognized symbol. Before gaining all this notoriety, the immense masterpiece of engineering had a practical purpose.

The Skywalk is a major construction project on former railway lands and is an enclosed walkway that is an integral part of the Toronto Path. The locals know him well.

Canada’s Walk of Fame
In a city where our gaze is easily lost in height from one skyscraper to another, it is true that it is shady to have to focus your attention on the ground, and yet. Launched in 1998, Canada’s Walk of Fame honours the success and work of Canada’s leading personalities through a series of stars.

Surprising piece of history, lost in this ultra futuristic glass immensity, St Andrew’s Church challenges our curiosity. Designed in 1876 by a Canadian architect and businessman, this religious building was used from the outset to house a congregation of the Presbyterian Church where lay people are elected to its leadership.

It is true that in the contemporary architectural genre, here we are more used to tall glass towers rather than this kind of building. Far from being trivial, the Sharp Centre for Design opened in 2004 as part of a project to expand the campus of OCAD University, the Ontario School of Art and Design.

Art Gallery of Ontario
Recognized as one of the finest museums in North America, the Art Gallery of Ontario is far from being housed in an old building, contrary to what is commonly seen. Neither the municipality nor any public body was responsible for the creation of this place in 1900.

At the heart of the hustle and bustle and bustle, Yonge-Dundas Square is one of Toronto’s major hubs. Officially opened to the public in 2003, through a downtown renovation project, this square is a unique gathering place for the 56 million people who frequent it each year.

Separating the city from north to south, Yonge Street is the main route to our destination.

Far from being as design-conscious as its predecessor, the former Toronto City Inn is one of the most representative landmarks in the city’s history. When it was first opened in 1899, after 10 years of work, this Romanesque Revival building was the largest municipal building in North America.

The Financial District is an illustrious area in the city centre, and is hardly invisible with its concentration of buildings.

Home to the former Bank of Montreal building since 1993, the Hockey Hall of Fame is a true declaration of love for Canadian sport par excellence. Originally planned to be inaugurated more than 200 km away in the city of Kingston, where hockey is believed to have been born, it was finally in Toronto that this institution was born on August 26, 1961.
