If you enjoy eating somewhere with a magnificent view, you can generally count on that if you dat in a tower Restaurant. And all over the world!
As a Canadian, I've eaten at the Top of Vancouver Revolving Restaurant and have heard a lot about the restaurant on the top of the CN Tower in Toronto. We also ate in Seattle's Eye of the Needle revolving restaurant in the Space Needle tower about fifty years ago when such an experience was still relatively unique, or at least for a young woman who grew up on the Canadian prairies.
Following are just a handful of sumptuous scenery and dining experiences available to you from heights with views of oceans, rivers, mountains and historical buildings, neighborhoods, and other city vistas.
