Waterfalls · Caves · Casinos

The city of Niagara Falls houses the U.S. half of the famous waterfall that straddles the border between Canada and the United States. The city is a perfect base for sightseeing at the magnificent falls, and it also offers a number of cultural attractions, including museums and galleries, for those on vacation. A number of properties in town are on the National Register of Historic Places, many within the three historical districts. Though the city's past is dotted with periods of corruption and organized crime, great efforts have been made to rejuvenate this scenic city. The downtown area provides a close-up view of the American, Horseshoe, and Bridal Veil Falls, while Little Italy, historically home to a large Italian-American population, is a great spot for restaurants and bakeries. Put Niagara Falls at the heart of your travel plans by using our United States itinerary maker site.
