A 670-meter (2,198-foot) tunnel built more than a century ago on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls has been opened to visitors. It was first created by an electricity generating company to harness hydropower from the landmark’s waters.
Near the end of the tunnel a rumbling begins to fill the air. Natural light pours in as the path exits onto a 20-meter, river-level viewing platform that is almost at the base of Horseshoe Falls. Gruosso has to shout to be heard over the ceaseless pounding.
The platform also gives visitors a perch to watch the tourist boats, filled with passengers in rain-ponchos, bobbing like corks at the foot of the falls. A visit to the power station and tunnel takes around two hours, but to attend the evening show an overnight stay is recommended. Accommodation ranges from higher end Falls-view hotels such as the Hilton, to budget-conscious establishments like the Days Inn.
