CANADA ~ Toronto - Ontario ~

...Great view with the CN Tower as the crown jewel of the Toronto skyline... with its distinctive needle shape and awe-inspiring height, it's hard to miss, no matter where you stand in the city... Toronto is undoubtedly the most renowned and largest city in Canada... mostly known for its iconic landmarks and stunning architecture, the city is also quite popular among art enthusiasts with several world-class art galleries and museums... it is the primary financial and commercial center of the country... and one of the most multicultural and cosmopolitan cities in the world... Thanks a lot Ravindra!ヽ(•‿•)ノ  

Located on the north shore of Lake Ontario, Toronto is the capital of Ontario. The city of Toronto started off as York, the capital of Upper Canada in 1793. York was incorporated and renamed Toronto in 1834. Toronto is the fourth largest city in North America.

The name “Toronto” is derived from the Iroquoian word "tkaronto" which means "place where trees stand in the water."
