Casa Loma

In 1914, Casa Loma was built for financier Sir Henry Pellat. Today, it is a museum and landmark due to its Gothic Revival style architecture.

Unlike anything seen in the area, Casa Loma sits on top of a hill overlooking Toronto.

Today, Casa Loma is one of Toronto’s top tourist attractions. The castle is now owned by the City of Toronto and is regarded as a treasured heritage landmark.

Sir Winston Churchill Park

Sir Winston Churchill Park is very famous among the locals, especially in the summer. A huge picnic spot, the hill located in Winston Churchill Park looks amazing in the summertime as it overlooks Toronto.

Over 250 million litres of water lie just a metre beneath the park’s surface in the St. Clair Reservoir. Completed in 1931, the reservoir holds enough water to last the whole city three weeks of average use and is used by the surrounding community every day.
