If you're a big fan of art, you'll recognize the glass and steel design of the entrance to the Royal Ontario Museum and the geometrical sorts of The Crystal by Daniel Libeskind. Opened in 2007, it definitely puts the ROM, Canada's biggest museum of world culture and natural history, on the shortlist of Toronto's landmarks.
