Amazing views of the falls are accessible in several ways: walk down a rail-lined path to see the river spilling over cliffs up close, or get an aerial view of the churning rapids in a helicopter ride. You can also take a trip behind the Falls to see the natural wonder “behind the scenes.”
Facts about Niagara Falls:
• Open-air jet boats and cruises in the base of Horseshoe Falls mean adventurers will likely get soaked, but it’s all part of the excursion.
• If you can’t get enough of the story behind the Falls, see “Legends of Niagara Falls,” a 3D-4D special effects film at Niagara’s Skylon Tower. The film covers the geologic evolution of the Falls and the native legend, the Maid of the Mist.
• Away from the roaring waters, get close to nature in a different way with a visit to Bird Kingdom, the world’s largest indoor free-flying aviary. More than 500 birds call this spot home and turn visitors into their own personal perches.
• The butterflies in Niagara Park’s Butterfly Conservatory take the same liberties, but their two-legged guests don’t seem to mind when any one of 2,000 varieties of the winged creatures alight on an outstretched finger.
• Wine tasting, scenic drives and living history also abound in the surrounding area. Take the time for a long stay to savor everything that Niagara Falls has to offer.
