I've been there

There is a lot to do around there. The American side is beautiful and more of a nature park than a tourist/commercial monstrosity. BUT the view from the Canadian side is better.

On the American side there are a few things to do near the falls....there's more to do on the Canadian side, an aquarium, an amusement park, wax museum, butterfly pavillion, tons of haunted house things and more....it's pretty cool.

I enjoyed the Canadian side for the carnival aspect and such - and I enjoyed the American side for the beauty - and you can get so close to the water!

OH and don't forget about Maid of the Mist - the boat that takes you to the foot of the falls and Cave of the Winds...where you can go into caves behind the falls...SO much fun
