It may happen that the museums are not really a travel attraction but indeed worth a visit. Talking about Ontario, this place is rich in both natural and human-made wonders, which are as follows.

Niagra Falls

Visit Niagra Falls

Visiting Niagra falls is one of the best things to do in Ontario Canada. Most people visit Ontario to see this wonder only. 

Niagra falls is actually the combination of three falls named the horseshoe falls, American falls, and the bridal veil falls. Perhaps this combination is what makes it beautiful.

Along with its beautiful appearance, the history of this fall is also rich. It was built almost 12,000 years ago. Throughout all these years, it has been under several maintenances. 

But wait! It’s not about standing there in the crowd and watching the waterfall. Apart from being a natural wonder, the fall is a major source of hydroelectric power generation.

Moreover, you can find sky wheels and casinos that will enable you to see it in a different way.

Niagra has the highest water force rate in the world. That’s why it has also been used as a powerhouse. One of the greatest things about this fall is not its height but the water force and volume.

The water runs down so forcefully that it appears to be a wall of water. So, your next Instagram story must have a photo of Niagra Falls.

CN Tower

Climb the CN Tower

Have you ever thought of climbing up to a building that can give you a view of almost the entire city, and all you can see is nothing but dots of lights?

Well, if you are afraid of heights, you should definitely try climbing the CN Tower. Before Burj Khalifa, it was one of the tallest structures. 

Now, the question arises, if it’s not the tallest anymore, why do people still visit it? Though the title is not there anymore, the memories are there. 

When asked international tourists why they still come to visit CN Tower, they answered that after Niagra falls, it is the only place that they want to visit the most. Watching such a tall tower and standing with pride is an experience out of this world.

But you know what is more exciting than that? Walking on the sky-high edges of the CN Tower. Don’t panic. You’ll be attached with ropes that will not let you fall. 

It is not as easy as it seems. It takes quite a long time to finish, and while walking, you can see the sunset and the city below, which is nothing but dots of lights.

Moreover, the views can be more charming with a fantastic dinner. The 360 restaurant in the CN Tower has an amazing cuisine that you can explore with an amazing view.

Lake of the Woods

Visit the Lake of the Woods

Another attractive tourist spot in Ontario is the Lake of the woods. Yes, it’s a lake. Nothing new. But something that will excite you is the surrounding area. The lake in itself is enough to put you in awe, but the other ones are also there.

There are various towns that you can visit. The towns have the perfect balance of the city and the wildlife. 

The very fact of wildlife and human life co-existing in the very same place is adventurous. No! You will not die; chill.

You can say that the towns are built in this way only. You can have all the benefits of city life while you will not have to go away from nature.

All the fishing connoisseurs gather each year and compete against each other. Even if you don’t participate, you will be amazed to see the skills and the fish. Those are nothing but river giants. So, what are you waiting for?

Casa Loma Castle

Thrilling Experience at Casa Loma

Casa Loma is one of the most haunted places in the world. This castle has stories of being haunted by more than one ghost.

The workers and the visitors claimed that they had felt the unseen presence of some spirits. Sometimes they are on the second floor, or sometimes, they are in some room, etc.

The majority of the stories revolve around a lady called “The White Lady.” She is one of the most popular ghosts of the castle. People believe that she used to be the maid in this place, and after her death, the spirits are still there.

These theories prove that houses or any place have their own memory, and this is the reason we feel eerie whenever we visit such places. Some paranormal researchers have also visited the place and gathered some voice recordings as proof.

Well, we are not sure whether the stories are real or not. So, why don’t you visit the place and experience it on your own? No worries, no cases of dangerous activities have been reported to date.

The place is open for tourists, and there are thousands of tourists like you who visit the castle each year.

Skullstore Oddity Shop

The Treasures of Skullstore Oddity Shop

Only haunted houses aren’t spooky. Skulls too! Don’t get frightened. This place is not haunted but is interesting. 

The Skullstore oddity shop is one of the biggest shops that have a wide range of historical collections. These are human skulls, the remains of various exotic animals, mummies, and many more.

All these are legally collected. So, if you like collecting these, you can buy one!

Apart from the remains, this place can give you a close insight into darker histories that include black magic, spooky rituals, and a lot of other things that are rare.

So, all the history freaks, don’t wait for anything, and plan your trip now. We know those who find it spooky might avoid visiting this place.

But there is nothing to fear about it. By visiting this place, you’ll get a chance to know about various existences that you have never even heard about. 

Things like preserved brains are also there for public display. The experts say that this place is actually bringing history back to life in the form of bones and remains that are worth your time and money. So, let yourself be the historic judge for one day!

Grotto

Hike to Grotto

The Grotto is another attractive place in Ontario. Do you like big, ancient trees, the sea, and caves? If yes, this place is not less than heaven for you. This place has all the above-mentioned wonders.

To reach the exact place, you need to hike for about 30-45 minutes. The hike is actually the real travel attraction. 

You will be witnessing various caves of limestones and ancient trees that you have never seen. This hiking is absolutely safe and not dangerous for kids. Your kids perhaps will enjoy it more.

It feels like walking on a path of wonders to reach another wonder. But there are certain things that you need to keep in mind before finalizing your visit. 

This place is heavily crowded. Its beauty draws thousands of people each year. This ultimately creates the parking lot crisis. So, how to overcome this?

Very simple, just pre-book yourself a parking slot. Moreover, don’t discriminate between hiking from the actual one. You can prepare yourself in the exact same way you do while going on a mountain hike.

Pack your bags, the water bottle, and snacks, and you are all set to go.

White River

Take Your Kids to The White River

The White River is not a river actually, but a place most suitable for your kids. It is actually a park where you can spend some quality time with your family and friends. It has a variety of adventures of all types.

But don’t confuse it with other normal parks. Here you can try things like boating, hiking, and many more. The statute of Winnie the pooh gives you happy vibes.

Apart from that you can also go fishing and see the varieties of the ocean. One of the greatest things about this town is its serenity.

The residents are very limited, and you can have your own space and time. So, you don’t need to worry about crowds and all. 

We are also not saying that people don’t go there but yes, comparatively less. As it is situated a little bit on the outer side, you have better chances to visit the places freely. 

We would suggest you to go hiking and fishing if not anything else. Because these two are one of the greatest attractions of this place. Moreover, the town has its own museum that will help you to know the place on a deeper level. 

Diefenbunker

Historical Diefenbunker

Diefenbunker is one of the most historical places in Ontario. Yes, as the very name suggests, it is actually a bunker. It was used in times of the cold war to defend soldiers. 

Later, the government decided to turn it into a museum that would depict the entire history of the cold war.

Canada is a land of wonders. This is something that we knew from the very beginning. But turning a bunker into a museum is worthy of applause. 

The bunker depicts the history of Canada. Starting from the amazing architecture to its preservation, everything is in the exact place. 

We know that there are thousands of people who do not have any interest in going to the past. There is nothing wrong with it. But at the same time, the fact cannot be denied that Canada played a very significant role in recent historical events.

The bunker is proof of the rich history. As we are talking about places having memories while discussing Casa Loma, Diefenbunker is exactly the same.

Visiting the place will bring you one step closer to the country and the times it has been through.

Niagra on the Lake

Niagra on the Lake Trip

Want to go back in time? Yes, this town can take you back to the 19th century. Niagra on the Lake is actually a town that is still kept as it was in the 19th century.

One fine morning, you can just spontaneously plan a trip to this town and enjoy the life of a time when you were not even born and only heard of that in books and movies.

To be honest, it gives you the Pride and Prejudice vibes. Hold on! We are not saying everything is antique, and you are not allowed to touch anything!

The actual matter is completely the opposite. You can do that. Have you ever tried doing something you used to do when you were a child? Something like making paper notes? 

Yes, the town is also like that. Actual people live in this town, but the houses and restaurants have still kept the way they were. Even the new houses are made to look antique and old in time to give the visitors royal vibes.

So, if you want to do something out of the box and want to be a duchess for a day, the doors are open.

Brave Memories of Terry Fox Memorial

When we are actively preserving the memories of history, sometimes to pay tribute and sometimes to have fun, then how can we forget those great souls who didn’t give a second thought before doing something risky?

Terry Fox was also one of those greatest personalities who had always tried to spread awareness to stop something he had suffered in his life. Terry Fox was a cancer activist who lost one leg due to cancer.

The brave soul participated in a marathon organized to spread awareness about cancer. The monument depicts the moment when he stooped and ended his journey.

You must be thinking, what is so special about it? Well, maybe it is not special for you, but it can be a monument of hope to those who are fighting this deadly disease and sometimes feel like giving up.

So, even if you are fortunate enough when it comes to health, it is never a bad decision to be a part of something that has a bigger purpose.

There are very few people who know about him, and the very goal is to remember him through our deeds and accomplishments. So, take some time out for this.

Slate Islands

Animal wonders in Slate Islands

As we are talking about preservation, have you heard about animal preservation? Obviously yes! Slate islands are just like that only. You, nature, and the beautiful animals are all you can discover on this island.

It is known for Wolves, deer, and wildflowers. These animals were once endangered. But after their preservation has started, their numbers have increased.

On this island, you will be able to see those species that are not endangered but not seen often as well. Animal lovers can have a good time here. 

Moreover, we can call it a living encyclopedia of animals. 

Apart from animals, the weather here is just stunning. The Fogg and the storms are all beautiful. It might take a few days to explore and experience nature only before you can move on to the animal part.

Specifically speaking, the evenings are mesmerizing here. It might elevate your photography portfolio. The right place and the right click are all you need to capture the rarest of moments. 

If you are thinking of camping, trust us! It is the best thing to do! If you want to experience everything, spending a full day and night is a must.

Wolfe Island Corn Maze

Fun Time at Wolfe Island Corn Maze 

Corn Maze is all about corn fields, greenery, and delicious food. All the exotic lunches or dinners at the most luxurious restaurants are nothing in front of the beautiful meal you can enjoy in the cornfields. 

The restaurants serve a wide range of unique dishes that you can try. All you can see is just the cornfield. It feels like movies only. 

The best thing to do here is to watch the sunrise. It is different from what you have seen in the mountains or on the beaches. 

Conclusion

When we are talking about travel destinations or how we can make the most out of our travel plan, one thing you must do is not make a plan.

It is a great thing to pre-plan your trip but always keep some space for spontaneous plans. This way, you are making yourself more vulnerable to experiences that might be more enjoyable than the planned ones.
