Casa Loma locked!?
Another entrance led us to this castle...it's odd as Casa Loma's located in the center of the city, I mean, not often one builds a castle smack in the center of city.
Read more about Sir Henry Pellatt's dream turned reality HERE. Built betwen 1911-1914, Casa Loma changed hands several times before the city turned it into a tourist attaction. I was amazed to learn that Casa Loma has 98 rooms and 30 bathrooms! I wonder how it was like when Sir Henry threw a party...
It came from the sculpture bursting out of the "window" from Rogers Center:o). The center is an entertainment hub, hosting all sorts of events. Read about its history HERE.
Art Gallery of Ontario- one end of it, love the curves...more on this later. Meanwhile, read more about it HERE.
More artsy stuff...Here's the Ontario College of Arts & Design. Giant colour pencils hold up what looks like "black and white pixels" structure. It's awe-spiring! Check out the artsy stuff on OCAD website.
Hmmm...well toned legs :o). A police station in Toronto with big Chinese characters at the entrance (Mom says that it's Police Station, is it?)
And then let's end the post with a pic of a pub (located opposite Art Gallery of Ontario) ... Village Idiot Pub! L'idiot du Village! hmmmm....I'm not sure whether I want to be seen in such a pub with a name like that. Hahaha....
To be continued...
