The major tourist attraction contains 6 elevators travelling at thrilling speeds and taking what seems like less than a minute to reach the observational area!
Since 1994, the CN tower features a particular attraction: The Glass Floor. Not designed for the faint of heart (or poodles) part of the floor allows visitors to stand on thick, transparent glass, looking down at 342 (1,122 ft.) metres of altitude below them. The Glass Floor can hold 21,835 kg or 48,138 lbs. Many visitors take pictures laying on the glass floor, which results in an optical illusion of them more or less floating the sky.

Also, the Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada, the country’s largest, is located just beside the tower and showcases a multitude of underwater inhabitants. Thus, hopefully this travel log makes a good first impression about a fascinating sightseeing destination: The CN Tower.
