Niagara Parks Power Station | |
The Niagara Parks Power Station is a fascinating piece of history that played a crucial role in transforming Niagara Falls into one of the largest hydroelectric power sources in the world. This impressive facility was built in the early 1900s and was the first hydroelectric power station to be built on the Canadian side of the falls. Today, visitors can explore the power station and learn all about its history and technology. The attraction offers a unique look at the inner workings of the power station, with interactive exhibits that allow visitors to see how the turbines and generators work to harness the power of the Falls, including a descent 180 feet beneath the power station to discover a 2,200-foot long tunnel that opens up to a stunning panoramic view. One of the highlights of the power station is the chance to see some of the original equipment or stick around for Currents: Niagara's Power Transformed for a magical and illuminating show of light and sound. | |
Visitors can get up close and personal with giant turbines and generators, as well as learn about the construction of the power station and the challenges faced by its builders. In addition to its historical significance, the Niagara Parks Power Station continues to play an important role in meeting the energy needs of the region. It's a must-see for anyone interested in the history and science of hydroelectric power and a great way to learn about the incredible engineering that went into harnessing the power of Niagara Falls. | |
