Niagara Falls Observation Tower

"Such a beautiful view!! Great place for a walk. Cost $5 to park our car with plenty of spaces to choose from. Left happy."

"Second time visiting. Although the only parking was street meter parking, both times we found a close spot. Lots of souvenier shops and restaurants in area. We didn't do the tour either time. We walked along the walkway and right up to the falls. It is beautiful - especially at night when the colorful lights make the falls and mist glow with a rainbow of colors!!!! Strongly recommend visiting!!!"

"Such a beautiful experience. Mother Nature has so much to offer. You truly feel the power and the magic behind these falls when you are there. Would truly recommend giving it a visit. Not only the Tower but everything to do with Niagara Falls. These photos are truly two months old, but better late than never I suppose."

"Perched at the precipice of the American Falls, the Niagara Falls Observation Tower affords an extraordinary vantage point, extending out over the Niagara Gorge like a grand invitation to witness one of the natural wonders of the world. The tower, standing as a silent sentinel, provides an unrivaled panoramic view that includes not only the American Falls but also the distant misty outlines of the Horseshoe Falls. It’s a place where you can feel the vibration of the falls through your feet, a testament to the immense power of the cascading waters below. With each viewing, whether through the clarity of a sunny day or the mystique of a mist-filled morning, the tower offers a unique perspective. Here, eagles soar at eye level, and rainbows frequently paint the skies, offering a breathtaking tableau that changes from moment to moment. An elevator ride down the tower leads to the boarding area for the Maid of the Mist, but it is the Observation Tower itself that allows for a moment of peaceful contemplation. It's an experience that draws you closer to the elements, a communion with the force of nature that is both uplifting and grounding. In essence, the Niagara Falls Observation Tower is more than just a structure; it is a journey to the heart of the falls, a place that truly allows the spirit of Niagara to envelope you in its grandeur."

"Come here at 9pm for fireworks and light show. Totally worth it and bring your camera for some cool shots. This place was open and free where we visited it in August and surprisingly not huge crowds, you could get a spot to take pictures easily. The fireworks, and light show work well with the falls. It is a must see when you are close by."
