This current bridge broke ground in 2015 after plans were announced to build it on November 29th,…read more2011. The bridge was completed in 2017. The bridge replaced a steel trestle built in 1875 by the Erie Railroad. The sad thing is, the state was given the opportunity to convert the old trestle to a pedestrian crosswalk, but they refused citing a lack of funding. Those two foundations are all that remain of the old bridge; all the other remaining pieces were scrapped. Please note, this is an active railroad bridge, DO NOT TRESPASS!!!

The Niagara Parks Power Station is truly the best way to view up close and personal this natural…read morelandmark without actually heading onto one of those tour boats. On the top floor, you're presented with exhibits highlighting how energy is used to power the area and how the falls contribute to that flow of electricity. There were some fun moments of learning that I'd say were suited for kids 10 years and up. The real gem is the underground walking path that takes you right to the falls for a truly unique feel. We spent a good amount of time taking in the sites and seeing how massive the falls were compared to our small bodies. Be prepared for a little bit of moisture and splash back from the waves. While admission may seem steep at first at $35, it really was worth it to get such a wonderful view of the falls. I'd highly recommend this to anyone visiting Niagara Falls and wanting to commit to one of the major attractions for great views.

The Power Station/Tunnel at Night is an absolute blast. The presentation/montage projected on the…read morewall is a fun little time, especially for little ones. The tunnel also offers a little bit of a cool down as it's a consistent 60 degrees, so if you've been exploring Niagara during the day, it offers a little bit of a respite and cool down. It's also about a 5-minute walk, so prepare for that before you can get to the deck. It's another one of the spots where you really just get misted, and the poncho is sufficient. It's one of those things where something so simple can bring so much happiness. It's just a dimly lit old power station and a tunnel leading to an observation deck. There are comparable observation decks that are free, but walking the tunnel and hearing and seeing water leaking in, and after walking, coming to the opening and seeing the deck, it's just a fun time.

Great way to learn about Port Dalhousie with the family. The owner and tour guide Guillaume is…read moreknowledgeable, friendly, takes his time explaining, and is an all around great tour leader. Helmets are training are provided before the tour starts and everything is sanitized. The tour is about 1.5 hours. It does not feel rushed and you get to cover a lot of ground in a short time giving us a good lay of the area so we could plan the rest of our stay a bit better. We had two adults and two teenagers and had a wonderful time. We definitely recommend, and will be planning another tour with Niagara Segway in the near future!

This site (although small) is packed with historic artifacts from the Fillmores and the Prices (of…read moreFisher Price toy fame). You'll find actual china, era posters (Currier and Ives), and even books hand signed by Millard Fillmore. But that's not the best part. The best part is far and away the guides. They truly care and are passionate about "their President" and in spreading true information about this often forgotten U.S. President. I gained new knowledge and even a broader perspective of who he was, how he was raised, how he climbed the political ladder as well as the good, the bad, and the ugly. The guides are fun and engaging and went above and beyond to answer all questions as well as give us extra suggestions for nearby sites (both in East Aurora and Buffalo) to visit to enhance our understanding of Millard Fillmore. If you want to understand presidential history and the events leading up to the Civil War, this stop is a must. Give Kathy a call and let her guide you through the life of our 13th President.

Let's focus on what's important here. Millard Fillmore was the hottest President in our history…read more Tall, handsome, and single between 1853-1858, he even made European royalty swoon. But, okay, he has some pretty decent accomplishments in American history that cements him as an influential figure in the shaping of Buffalo and our nation. The Millard Fillmore house is an absolute must-visit when it comes to local history, and certainly to state-wide history too! This is certainly a hidden gem of whatever reason, overshadowed I feel by the Roycroft campus just around the corner...but I am so glad to have had the chance to tour this historic home. I don't want to spoil any of the history of the house or its inhabitants here, so I won't. Seriously, take some time to visit this house! The museum is tour-guided, running on Wednesdays and weekends every half hour from 1-3pm. $10 for visitors, with discounts for seniors/children/etc. They take cash or card. No pictures allowed inside of the house, but photos of the exterior & gardens are cool! It was really cool to see all of the artifacts here, many pieces being genuinely owned by Fillmore throughout his lifetime. (They even have a lock of his hair on display!) If you're a bit of a history nut like me, a lot of what you'll find in this museum will be pretty common knowledge. I did find it really cool to learn the history of the house through its ownership, a bit more about Fillmore's personal life in Buffalo that I hadn't known before, and his accomplishments throughout and after his presidency. The docents were very knowledgeable, friendly, and had answers for every question I asked! I would honestly love to return here with friends, or would enjoy bringing someone from out of town to this amazing gem. It does my heart good to know how much love and appreciation this place has gotten from East Aurora - so thank you, for giving me such a wonderful experience in the process!

Of course, the Roycroft Inn, but there is the copper shop, visitor's center the antique store, the museum, the "chapel" building. There is a parking lot, but also street parking available. There is plenty of signage that will help you make your way through the area. You can wander through on your own but you can also book guided tours where you learn a lot of great information about the Arts and Crafts movement and the founder and the history of this charming space. Definitely worth it if you love art, architecture or history. The people that work here are fantastic. Knowledgable, friendly and love sharing stories. If you are in the Buffalo area, make sure to take the drive to check out this great and historic space!
