Fun for all in Niagara Falls: Five entertaining ideas for young and ... (Toronto Star)

There's more to see beyond the carnival-like sights, including a garden oasis, a jungle-themed kingdom and a new landmark museum.

Each of the 42 gondolas can carry a group of up to six 175 feet above the horizon for a bird’s-eye view of the falls, the surrounding cities and the sun setting over rowdy Clifton Hill beneath you. There’s more to come this summer, too: Visitors will be able to venture 180 feet down via an underground glass elevator, hike 2,200 feet through a tunnel and arrive at the base of Niagara Falls. For more than a century, to harness the falls for hydroelectricity, generators at this plant used steam-powered turbines, head gates and penstocks — you’ll learn about them all and Nikola Tesla, too. Start your day gently alongside more than 2,000 butterflies from over 40 species at North America’s largest year-round butterfly conservatory, located within the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens. Grab a complimentary scavenger-hunt book and a pencil, and then watch your step — seriously, to avoid squashing a fluttery friend — while admiring the shimmering blue morphos, yellow-striped zebra longwings and delicate rice paper butterflies. Kids sip on light-up drinks and parents on cocktails while waiting for the boisterous lighting storm, which arrives on the half-hour to excite animals and children alike. Here are just a few ideas for young and young-at-heart travellers alike.
