The mist from the falls.
That's just the falls, I also went to the street where they just have all these stupid over-priced attractions.
Sounds like a tourist trap

Not surprising.
Especially considering when he went.
I've never been there, looks pretty.

The whole city is full of tourists.
The waterfall is beautiful.

Which is why I'll never go there. Outside of the Falls, I'm betting there is barely anything to do
Looks and sounds boring.

There's a lot to do, actually. The falls is just the place to look at first.
I found myself sitting in a very high area all alone just staring into the falls, thinking.
I might get to go this summer. I have never been to New York or anywhere around there.
I remember when I took a trip to Niagra Falls when I was only seven or eight. I enjoyed it. powerofone;

Tourist traps are shitty and overpriced.
Niagara falls isn't shitty. befuddlement

You should go to Manhattan. The city is always an awesome place to visit. doodella;
Of course, that's like 7 or 8 hours away from Niagra Falls, so that's all up to you. I've never been to Niagra Falls. Every summer, my family says we will go and we never do.
Also, I believe the NY side of Niagra Falls is a state park. If that's the case, I could always get in for free since I'm an employee at another state park. Or I could just wear my uniform and say I actually work there. spam;

You heard correctly. caterpie;
If you've never been there, you need to go there at some point in your life. It is so much fun, and there's SO much to see. Times Square, Little Italy, Central Park, Chinatown, a shitload of museums... oh, and if you like animals, I suggest going to the Bronx Zoo (in the Bronx, duh).
You MUST eat bagels and pizza while you're there. It's a requirement. See Section E.
Just whatever you do, don't go by car. Train or plane is best.

I'll keep all that in mind. Sounds like a lot to see and do. :3

New York is only good for touring; living in the city itself will make you go crazy befuddlement
I'm going to try and find everything I can do in manhattan when I go since I have two weeks there really.

I just never fit in really; must have been because I was never in the rich neighborhoods and got stuck in the poor ones with the black people that beat you up if you act halfway-decent.
I love my location because I can easily take a neat little train ride up to NYC whenever I damn well please. doodella;
But truthfully, the only area I really know in the city is Times Square. :( Usually when I go it's for specific shows or places, I never do much exploring. One of these days I should.. but I have to find a friend to bring along frist. For some reason I don't think walking blindly around the city alone is a very good idea.
oh, and I like the subway. baddood;

That's one of my favorite pasttimes.
I went there, but I only saw it from the Canada side because I traveled there with my cousins living in Toronto.
It's very nice... Kind of boring, but it's a nice thing to see.
