Big city Buffalo is second in size state-wide only to New York City, but holds its own in terms of cultural attractions, proximity to national landmarks like Niagara Falls and the easy access it proffers to grand parks.
One of America's most important waterways, the Erie Canal, is remembered through interactive displays at The Erie Canal Museum, a facility in Syracuse housed in a historic weighlock building that aims to educate visitors on canal life. Enjoy multi-media exhibits that help recreate a slice of area history, from mid-19th-century tavern to general store, weighmaster's office to a full-size Erie Canal line boat. Young visitors can hone math and science skills in the Computer Kiosk solving canal construction problems and canal boat weigh-ins. Catch an orienting slide show in the Heritage Area Theater or sign up for a guided tour to make the most of your museum visit.
