Casa Loma.....=)




Casa Loma is the former home of financier Sir Henry Mill Pellat and a major tourist attraction in Canada. Casa Loma in now days is divided in the main floor, second floor, third floor, lower level, and the ground part.

1. Main Floor: the main floor is divided in different parts: great hall, library, dining room, the conservatory, serving room, peacock alley, Sir Henry's study, the smoking room and the billiard room.
2. Second Floor: in this floor is the Sir Henry's Suite and bathroom,, Lady' Pellat Suite and bathroom, guest suite, Windsor room and round room.
3. Third Floor: here is Queen's own rifles museum, garden room and the servant's room.
4. Lower Level: in this level are the swimming pool, wine cellar, and the tunnel to the stables.
5. The ground part: here are the stables, carriage room, gardens, secret garden, and the potting shed.

Through the walk I notice a lot of rooms and there were a lot of instrument that Sir Henry Pellat and Lady's Pellat use, like shotguns, small guns and different types of musical instruments. I also see how many medals Sir Henry has got in the army and also his uniform and Lady's Pellat uniform and clothes in those times. I recommend the tourist that takes a walk through the gardens and the tunnels.
