While wandering through the Downtown Core of Toronto you definitely have to visit the astonishing Galleria of BCE Place.
This is one of the more stunning open spaces in all of Toronto with high butresses soaring 85 feet overhead. The place seems more like a cathedral than a commercial office complex.
The Galleria was designed by Santiago Caltrava and actually serves to connect to two main office towers of the complex. Also of interest with BCE Place is the manner in which they incorporated the facades of several 1850's building into the design of the overall structure. It has been superbly done.
BCE Place is also the home of The Hockey Hall of Fame. Besides that there are several very good restaurants and shops that will make your visit worthwhile.
