09 Hang out in the castle at Casa Loma

You've probably seen this remarkable mansion in films like X-Men and Chicago without knowing it was Casa Loma. The 200,000-square-foot Edwardian castle, built in 1914, is one of Toronto's most treasured landmarks. The admission fee starts at $25. Dine at The Gardens of Casa Loma, the on-site alfresco patio on which you can enjoy fantastic food.
