Things to do in Buffalo
Niagara Falls
Situated on the border of New York and Canada, Niagara Falls is about a 30-minute drive north from Buffalo. Niagara Falls State Park is home to the iconic waterfalls, which can be viewed from the Observation Tower at Prospect Point and other points throughout the trails from the Niagara Gorge Discovery Center. Adjacent to the Discovery Center, you’ll find the Aquarium of Niagara, which houses Humboldt penguins, seals and sea lions.
Downtown Buffalo
With a canalside view and recently redeveloped waterfront, downtown Buffalo has a lot to offer. Famous for inventing buffalo chicken wings, Buffalo not only has dozens of buffalo wing stops but also taverns, breweries and other craft beer scenes. Plus, it is conveniently located in between the Buffalo River and the Buffalo Zoo.
