Photos of Ontario
'Rocks standing high near the water'
The centrally located province of Ontario in Canada is home to the Great Lakes,
Hudson Bay, Niagara Falls, Algonquin Provincial Park and many architectural
masterpieces such as the CN Tower, Sky Dome, and many of the national
parliament buildings in the capital city of Ottawa.
Toronto, the most popular city to visit in Canada and the largest
city in the country is also the provincial capital. Located on Lake
Ontario, one of the Great Lakes, Toronto is the technology capital
and home of the CN Tower, the world’s tallest man-made structure.
In the east of Ontario, Ottawa sits on the south bank of the Ottawa
River, with the twin city of Hull on the north bank in the province
of Quebec. Around the gothic parliament buildings you can often
find traditionally dressed Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers.
North Bay (‘Just north enough to be perfect’ the tag
line of the city states) is where I lived while travelling through
the province. North Bay is on the east shores of Lake Nipissing
in the Blue Sky Region. Algonquin Provincial Park is south east
of the city which is on the intersections of the Trans-Canada Highways
17 and 11. The busy city of 60,000 people has a few attractions
for tourists and makes a pleasant place to live.
Niagara Falls is in the south of Ontario on the border with New
York where Lake Erie flows into Lake Ontario. This is one of Canada’s
largest tourist attractions and the falls on the Canadian side of
the border are the most impressive.
We recommend to visit this image gallery which offers one of the very best selections of pictures of Ontario, Canada.
