And, of course, like everything it’s always a different perspective depending on your standpoint and the world’s most famous waterfalls can be explored on a number of Niagara Spotter Falls.
Various viewing areas are available in Niagara Falls State Park (the American side).
Luna Island is a small area between the American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls.
And it offers awe-inspiring, close-up views of both Falls.
Terrapin Point, we’re told, is perfect for sights of the thundering Horseshoe Falls.
While Prospect Point is the prime viewing area for the American Falls and Rapids including the nightly illumination and seasonal fireworks.
The nightly illuminations transform the natural wonder into an array of colours.
Special event displays change colours in support of various causes and significant milestones.
Now, of course, the Falls are the most spectacular sight in them thar parts.
But you should also experience what goes on beyond the waters.
Beyond the Falls
The free Niagara Falls shuttle service operates from May until September.
And you can take a trip to attractions such as Old Fort Niagara and Niagara Falls Underground Railroad Heritage Center.
While from 4-8 April NASA astronauts will provide free programming and exhibits throughout Niagara Falls USA around the Solar Eclipse.
Including at Niagara Falls Public Libraries, the Niagara Falls Underground Railroad Heritage Centre, the Aquarium of Niagara…
The Niagara Power Vista, the Niagara Falls Culinary Institute and Niagara Falls State Park.
Virtual NY State
Just north of the Falls, the Niagara Power Vista is an electrifying experience.
With interactive exhibits and the chance to design your own dam.
And a high-tech virtual ride across the landscapes of New York State.
Which, of course, I was denied when I visited the Horseshoe Falls, and this is the thing, because of the fog.
All this is for free and open all-year round.
So remember there is always a different perspective depending on your standpoint so be one of the Niagara Spotter Falls.
All major airlines fly to New York airports and Toronto.
