Spectacular Views

While I know I should be impressed by the view from the CN Tower, I find it uninspiring. Don't get me wrong -- it's great to see Niagara Falls on a clear day. But the view of Toronto itself is more anthill than metropolis from these dizzying heights. Instead, check out one of my favorite viewing spots, the Bloor Street Viaduct, where you'll get an altogether different picture of Toronto. The viaduct over the Don Valley connects Bloor Street in midtown Toronto with the East End (where Bloor becomes the Danforth). The pedestrian walkway will afford you what is possibly the most enchanting view of the city to be had. From here, Toronto looks more like a lush forest than a city. There are trees as far as the eye can see, with skyscrapers and towers jutting out here and there. If you don't see it for yourself, you won't believe it. Subway: Castle Frank, and walk east along Bloor to the viaduct.
