What Is The CN Tower Famous For?

One of the most celebrated and recognizable things in Canada is the CN Tower. Being a highlight in the Toronto skyline, the CN Tower reaches an incredible 553.33m which is 1,815 feet and 5 inches. It is a must-see location for anyone who is visiting Toronto and boasts incredible and breathtaking views from its height. It is no wonder that 1.5 million people come to visit the tower every year to check out the phenomenal views for themselves.

When the CN tower was constructed it took a very long 40 months of construction to complete and was opened to the public in 1976. It was an architectural wonder and was becoming one of the most celebrated landmarks in the country. It is a renowned tourist destination even to this day. Because of all the hard work, effort and love that went into building this in 1995, the CN tower was rightfully given the classification as one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. This was given by the American Society of Civil Engineers. This wonder of the world shares its incredible stature with the likes of the Empire State Building, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Itaipu Dam which is on the Brazil and Paraguay border.
