Charming Canadian Castles
Toronto, Canada, is home to Casa Loma. The structure was built in 1911 by Sir Henry Pellatt in the Gothic Revival style. The castle has 98 rooms, 30 bathrooms, an electric elevator, a dining room that seats 100, three bowling alleys, a rifle range, soaring towers, winding secret passageways, an 800-foot tunnel for horses, and five acres of gardens. Pellatt’s financial problems during WWI left the castle in disrepair, and it was taken over by the Toronto City Council. Today it has become a major Canadian tourist attraction.
