CN Tower & Roger's Building
In Canada though we had been staying Waterloo, thought it wouldn't be appropriate to leave the country without seeing Toronto. So decided to visit the provincial capital of Ontario. As it is only 100 km away from Watreloo we chose to back on the same day. From Charles St. Transit terminal we started our journey for Toronto by Greyhound Bus. It took only one and half hour to reach the city.
When we entered the city so many modern and high rise buildings came into view. For these tall buildings the city gets little sun shine. Toronto is very hectic city and the financial capital of Canada. It is growing upwards like NewYork city.
Toronto City Center
Our bus stopped in the bus terminal nearby the city center. Getting off the bus we first collected a map of the city from the tourist information center. Then started walking along the street to discover it by foot. On the way we saw a parade with flags of different countries. We found a number of interesting tours and sightseeing assistance available. As we didn't have that much time to observe all the attractions we took a canal cruise. It brought us to some nearby sites and islands of the city center. The tour was much enjoyable.

After the canal tour we were looking for some Bangladeshi or Indian resturants to have lunch. We heard before that there are a number of resturents of the subcontinent. But unfortunately we just wasted our valuable time in searching and got all of them closed. So treated ourselves with McDonalds burger. Again we started walking to see the CN Tower. CN Tower is the most popular tourists spots. It is the world's tallest building, about 553 meter (1,815 feet) high and Canada’s National Tower, also center of tourism of Toronto. It was built in 1976 to demonstrate the strength of Canadian industry by building a tower taller than any other in the world. To see the panoromic and extensive view of city Toronto from the top of CN tower is an awe-inspiring experience. For more enjoyment one can find arcade, motion theatre ride and The Height of Excellence, that is a 20 minute documentary of the building of the engineering. There is also a marketplace where you can buy souvenirs and other canadian stuffs

I felt tired walking for hours at a stretch. Still we had a nice time exploring the city. After a while entered a shoping complex. It was pretty large and beautiful with so many expensive brand stores.

Suddenly in a street opposite of a movie theatre a large crowd caught our sight. We were curious to know and asked a woman about. She said Brad Pitt might be there but she was not preety sure. We also waited little while to see the celebraty. But couldn't stay long as getting late for return.
