We all know how glorious those childhood days were, of heading off to an amusement park, hopping on a Ferris wheel, feeling the wind beneath you and soaring high above the sky.

The beauty of Niagara Falls is that you can experience that same rush you did as a kid, this time on Niagara Skywheel. This perfectly positioned Ferris wheel is located right in the heart of Clifton Hill. It offers a total experience for all who venture to the top of the sky.

Not only does SkyWheel soar 175 feet (53 meters) above the ground, but also the gondolas are enclosed and climate-controlled. Therefore, they certainly provide a comfortable aura any day of the year.

Open all year - day and night - this stunning ride is the perfect spot to spend a little time and discover just how magical The Falls, Clifton Hill and other surrounding areas are.

If you're keen on snapping some unique photos from up above, then this is the Niagara Falls attraction you should definitely add to your bucket list. During the approximately 10-minute ride, you're able to experience mesmerizing aerial views for miles on end.
