Calgary Tower - Great Attractions (Canada)

Take a tour of Calgary Tower in Canada -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

Rising among and easily above all of the buildings in Calgary, is the Calgary Tower.

This extensive observation tower in the downtown area of the city was made accessible to the public in 1968.

A lovely blend of colors including white, black, pink and gray, gives it a clean, classic look and makes it enchanting to gaze upon.

'Husky Tower' was the chosen name of this building until 1971 when it was changed to Calgary Tower.

A revolving restaurant and an observation deck are some of the exciting features of this site.

Nearly 191 meters and above 10,000 tons of this gigantic structure simply astonish the onlookers.

While it's a great structure, it doesn't rise "easily above all of the buildings in Calgary." It was true when it was first built, but now there are a few skyscrapers that are taller.
