    This an absolutely amazing place. You do not need to be a historian or architect geek to enjoy this amazing structure. It would take most people a lifetime to imagine the details of the place. You must go.

    My husband and I spent several hours touring these three retired navy ships: a destroyer, a cruiser, an a submarine. All were very interesting. The docents were happy to answer any questions. You could tell they enjoyed their work.
    Also, there is a park on site with several war monuments.
    This place is well worth a visit.

    This museum is strictly modern art. If you prefer traditional art, it's not for you. But modern art lovers will enjoy a visit.

    There are many unique gravesites and some elaborate statuary.

    Be advised this cemetery is massive - 270 acres! Keep this in mind if you choose to walk the grounds.

    It’s a small museum with a tour required. It cost $12. There are some videos to watch which were interesting. The room itself is restored after having other uses over the years. I liked it.

    We took the daily noon tour of Buffalo City Hall and thoroughly enjoyed it! Having lived in the area almost my whole life, I had never been inside. Mary led the tour of about 15 people. She was so knowledgeable and friendly and could answer every question. Filled with information on the art and architecture, she also knew the history of the city and could name the buildings in the vicinity. I learned so much! I highly recommend this tour!

    I enjoy watching games here. In this case it was a Sabres game. The seats were good, not too expensive. Fans are good, loud but not rowdy. Plenty of bathrooms. Easy to get in, not great to get out but ok. Lots of concessions choices. Prices aren’t terrible. Love that you can take the subway to the arena.

    I went here on a very cold April night. There were very few other people. It’s a great place to see a game. Sight lines are great. But I’d like it a little warmer.

    I was in town for a meeting. When it ended I had a few hours before the flight and the zoo is by the airport. It’s not a big zoo. But I enjoyed seeing the animals. It was hot that day but there was a decent amount of shade. I loved the sand cat. I don’t think I’ve seen one before.
