Besides the magnificent waterfalls, Niagara's guests can see many other local attractions. For example, the city's busiest street - Clifton Hill. This is a quite short winding street that starts from the very gorge of Niagara. This street accommodates many beautiful historic buildings. Today, the old buildings house many popular fast-food restaurants and entertainment facilities.
On this street, you can visit Ripley's Museum full of incredible exhibits or the mysterious House of Frankenstein, which is equipped with several panic rooms and incredible rides. The same street has the Houdini Museum bearing the name of the great illusionist. Its incredible exhibits are sure to impress even stubborn skeptics.
Walking over the waterfall, you can see an unusual symbol of these places - the old barge. In 1918, the barge ran aground. It was towed for some distance, but the rope broke off, and the ship rushed to the waterfall. The ship's crew was still on board, their barge got miraculously caught behind a rocky ledge just 750 meters away from the cliff. The whole team was saved, and the abandoned barge has remained in this place for many years.
