Great place for kids to spent time learning about power generation and electricity in general. The views are also amazing from here. This build on top of real power plant so we can see the hydro electric dam infrastructure. There are some nice exhibits and movie. Lot of parking and entry is free.

We visited this place on our vacation in August and it’s a really nice place to visit. They have many hands on exhibits that adults and children would have fun interacting with. The staff is friendly and helpful. There is also an outside balcony that you can walk around and see the Canada Power House and USA Power House plus the Niagara River.

Plus there are literally some great vistas to view from at...
