No trip here would be complete without a visit to the CN Tower, which stands at an imposing 553.33 metres high, dominating the landscape with its imposing height and shape. This was once the world's tallest tower and is still very impressive. If you're not worried by heights, head to the LookOut Level at 345 metres to marvel at the sweeping views over the city, or feel as though you're walking on air on the Glass Floor. For the best views, there's the outdoor SkyTerrace at 342 metres high, and even the SkyPod section at a vertigo inducing 447 metres above the city.
