Niagara Falls Observation Tower
Admission includedStanding on the deck of the Niagara Falls Observation Tower, the full scale of the falls finally makes sense. The structure extends out over the Niagara Gorge on Prospect Point, placing you directly above the churning water where the American Falls meet the river below. From this vantage, mist rises around you and the roar is constant and physical. The Niagara Falls Observation Tower offers one of the few spots on the American side where the breadth of the entire cataract, from shore to shore, unfolds in a single glance.
